My talk on benchmarking utility performance

I gave this talk -- "Creating utility competition via performance-focused insurance" -- last week at the IWW session in utility benchmarking.

Here are my slides [PDF] and the audio [MP3] (it starts as I am asking who is in the audience).

Most of the other talks concentrated on different ways of measuring utility outputs -- often engineering-centric. I was quite impressed by Sasha Danilenko's update on IBNET, since that website is FULL of comparative utility data for 2,000 utilities in 85 countries.
