    The PricewaterhouseCoopers' US utilities practice released its annual utilities and power industry year-end whitepaper, Stay informed*: 2008 utilities and power industry technical update. This whitepaper was developed to assist senior accounting and financial reporting personnel at utilities, merchant energy companies and energy trading organizations as they address critical issues to their business.

PwC is recognized for our leadership, innovation, and service to the utility industry. Our philosophy in serving the utility industry is to employ dedicated, cross functional resources to serve only utility industry clients. This means our professionals develop a far greater understanding of the complex utility regulatory environment and accounting issues than auditing "generalists" could possibly develop. We audit approximately 40% of the industry in the US and have performed meaningful value added services of the majority of the remaining industry members.

Our work with utility companies has enabled them to achieve success and increase stakeholder value in a dynamic and volatile marketplace. We strive to maintain strong relationships with our clients to help us anticipate their needs and tailor our solutions to their culture and circumstances. Our ability to combine key functional skills with relevant industry knowledge provides comprehensive solutions to multi-faceted issues. Our global experience brings another important dimension to our clients—the ability to share best practices throughout the world.
