Opinion

Howie: This isn’t a scam. It’s just a smart utility deal.

This isn’t a hostile takeover or a backdoor privatization scheme. This is a well-structured financial agreement that delivers capital, safeguards ratepayers, and pushes the utility deeper into the renewable energy era without turning it into a monopoly Frankenstein.
