The CPUC Risk-Based Decision-Making Framework

As part of the S-MAP proceeding I was recently invited to give a presentation on tail risk and consequences for utility risk planning by the CPUC's Safety Policy Division. This is shown on the CPUC YouTube channel below.

About the S-MAP/RDF Proceeding

California statute requires utilities to include safety and reliability risk assessments and incorporate the findings into their funding requests.

The Risk-Based Decision-Making framework (CPUC proceeding R.20-07-013) - formerly known as S-MAP determines regulations and requirements for utility risk assessments. M-bar Technologies and Consulting have been contributing to these proceedings since 2014.
