Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Ferc) Defined
Operating within the Department of Energy, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is an agency with both judicial and legislative powers. Assuming most of the duties of the Federal Power Commission (FPC) at its inception in 1977, the FERC's main duties are to regulate the interstate sale, transportation, and transmission of energy and energy resources, as well as the licensing of hydroelectric projects. Its authority is derived primarily from the Federal Power Act (FPA) of 1935, which states that it is the federal government's responsibility to ensure just and reasonable rates for power.
