Indiana regulators blocked a gas power plant due to "stranded asset" concerns. Regulators should also realize that we will accumulate massive "stranded assets" in gas utility distribution systems. We must stop gas expansion now! #EnergyTwitter https://www.utilitydive.com/news/indiana-regulators-reject-vectren-gas-plant-over-stranded-asset-concerns/553456/ …

Most regulators are ignoring stranded assets since tackling the issue now will often result in higher gas prices. Shifting costs from today's rate payers onto their children is commonly seen as a good thing in rate design... Today's rate payers have a voice, tomorrow's don't.
EDF wrote a good summary of the Stranded Gas Asset issue and filed it with the California Energy Commission. See: https://efiling.energy.ca.gov/GetDocument.aspx?tn=227741 …
