Phone Number (202) 530-6420

Valerie Green focuses her practice on natural gas, electricity, renewable energy, and regulatory and compliance issues involving the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and other administrative agencies. Clients rely on Valerie’s responsiveness, attention to detail, and deep knowledge of regulatory process and precedent in proceedings involving administrative litigation, compliance audits and investigations, and in appellate litigation before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Valerie’s focus on coalition and consensus building in situations involving difficult, contentious issues frequently results in successful, advantageous settlements for her clients.

Valerie has extensive experience with a wide range of energy-related issues, including regulation under the Natural Gas Act, Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, the Federal Power Act, the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act, and FERC’s regulations implementing those statutory regimes. Valerie advises natural gas shippers on pipeline rate and tariff issues, and has advised natural gas pipelines on their rate cases, Standards of Conduct, FERC’s capacity release rules, and other regulatory issues.

Drawing on her deep knowledge of Independent System Operator and Regional Transmission Organization (ISO/RTO) tariffs and operations, Valerie regularly assists clients as they navigate electric transmission issues, and she protects her clients' business interests in the electric grid.

Valerie also provides regulatory compliance and enforcement advice and counsel to clients who become involved in audits and investigations by FERC, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), or a Regional Reliability Organization.

She assists clients with data gathering and review, conducts employee interviews, takes and defends depositions, and when necessary, prepares self-reports and negotiates settlements of alleged violations. Valerie’s litigation background includes representing defendants and plaintiffs in energy industry-related matters, as well as construction, employment, insurance, mortgage-lending, and products liability cases.
