Biography
Mr. Levine works on consulting and litigation support engagements, primarily in the natural gas and electric power industries. His work focuses on financial modeling, valuation, damages estimation, regulatory economics, analysis of competition, and business strategy.
He has analyzed anticompetitive behavior by a large shipper on a gas pipeline serving California, culminating in a report submitted to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. He also evaluated a gas distribution company's proposed hedging program and assisted in the preparation of testimony describing the benefits of the program to the state regulator. In several court proceedings, Mr. Levine critiqued opposing experts' damage claims involving an alleged antitrust violation in the gas processing, gathering, and liquids transportation markets, and the second involved an alleged breach of contract by an electric utility.
Mr. Levine has also supported a large shipper in settlement talks with an interstate gas pipeline by modeling the pipeline's rates and estimating potential savings from rate reductions. He also wrote a report for the owner of a power plant located in the Caribbean, analyzing worldwide LNG markets in order to assist the owner in evaluating fuel alternatives for additional generating capacity.
