In the past, one utility provided the three components of your energy service: generation, transmission and distribution. Legislatures and the Public Utility Commissions (PUC) of many states have created competition for electricity and natural gas supply. This allows consumers to choose their energy supplier, while the delivery of the energy is still regulated and is the responsibility of the local utility company.
Unregulated
Generation: With deregulation, you’re able to go direct and choose the company that produces energy, or the company who buys it on your behalf to sell to you.
Regulated
Transmission and Distribution: This is the actual delivery of electricity across the poles and wires and natural gas through pipelines to your business by your local utility company. Your utility company is responsible for maintaining the poles and wires, or pipelines, and responding to emergencies and power outages. The public utility regulates transmission and distribution to ensure the safety and reliability of your services.

Direct Access is a energy service option whereby eligible customers purchase electricity and natural gas from a energy supplier rather than from an investor owned utility. (Example CA - PG&E, SDG&E, Edison)
Direct Access was originally implemented by the California Public Utility Commission in 1998 to bring retail competition to California electric power markets in an effort to control rate increases. Retail customers had the choice either to subscribe to traditional bundled utility service or to purchase electricity on a competitive basis (lower rate) from an Electric Service Provider.
