Net Metering - Are Better Days Ahead? 

Don Kreis Speaks out Finally


Don Kreis, New Hampshire's Consumer Advocate to the Public Utilities Commission, has in the past, shied away from wading into the briar patch of debate over Net Metering. In this episode Dr. Don shares a whimsical story about how net metering began as well as a brief primer on the technology and why it is so important now that consumers consider the advantages of adding solar to their homes and businesses in light of skyrocketing electric rates.


Donald M. Kreis has served since 2016 as New Hampshire’s Consumer Advocate, representing the interests of residential utility customers before the New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission (NHPUC) as well as regional and federal decisionmaking bodies.  He has previously served as general counsel of the NHPUC, as a hearing officer with the Vermont Public Utility Commission, and as the Assistant Director of the Institute for Energy and the Environment at Vermont Law School.  As a result of his career in utility regulation, Don has expertise in applying cost-of-service principles to the determination of just and reasonable prices for essential public services.  An attorney, Don has served judicial clerkships with the Maine Supreme Judicial Court, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine, and the Vermont Supreme Court

.

As the father of a young adult with cystic fibrosis, Don is active in the Northern New England Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and has, of necessity, become an auto-didact with respect to issues related to healthcare policy, genetics, microbiology, pulmonology and drug pricing.  Prior to law school, Don spent a decade as a fulltime journalist, first with Associated Press and then with the alternative newsweekly Maine Times.  Don received his bachelor’s degree from Middlebury College, holds a master’s degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, and earned his juris doctorate from the University of Maine School of Law.
