What is a Public Service Commission (PSC)?

A public service commission (PSC) is generally a regulatory body at the state level responsible for regulating utilities that provide service within a state. The commission is comprised of either state-elected or state-appointed officials. These members regulate all electric, gas, water, cable and telephone retail in many states, and are also generally responsible for ensuring that utilities are responsive to customers' needs and service requests, and that service is both adequate and reliable.

How Florida PSC describes itself:

The mission of the Florida Public Service Commission is to promote the development of competitive markets - as directed by state and federal law - by removing regulatory barriers to competition, and by emphasizing incentive-based approaches, where feasible, to regulate areas that remain subject to rate of return regulation. Once markets become sufficiently competitive, the Florida PSC will eliminate regulatory involvement to the extent permitted by law.
