Tiao Discusses Utilities’ Concerns in Sharing Information with the Government
Time 1 Minute Read

On April 20, 2014, Hunton & Williams partner Paul M. Tiao was featured on Platts Energy Week discussing the importance of the homeland security partnership between electric utility companies and the U.S. government. In the feature, “U.S. Utilities Wary of Sharing Grid Risks,” Tiao talked about the recent leak to The Wall Street Journal of a sensitive internal memo at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission that revealed potential vulnerabilities in the electricity grid. Tiao said that many utility companies want to work with federal agencies to protect homeland security, but in order to do that, they need to be able to trust the government to protect sensitive information about threats and vulnerabilities. The leak of the memo has undermined that trust.
