Vid Prabhakaran, Partner at Davis Wright

Today, my guest is Vid Prabhakaran, a Partner at Davis Wright whose practice is focused on understanding the regulatory complexities posed by California’s shifting energy framework as California attempts to transition to economically viable greener power sources. Vid regularly advocates on behalf of clients throughout the energy sector who envision an efficient and reliable energy marketplace and seek to successfully invest in the reduction of greenhouse gases.

Vid has over a decade of experience directing client successes before California regulatory bodies, including the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), the California Energy Commission, the California Air Resources Board, the California Independent System Operator, CalGEM, the Office of Energy Infrastructure Safety, and the California DMV, as well as the California Legislature. Vid’s experience before the CPUC, in particular, allows him to effectively represent clients in the regulated transportation, telecommunications, and water sectors as well. Some of Vid’s representative clients include Uber Technologies Inc., various autonomous vehicle companies, and Comcast Corporation. Vi holds a BA from Yale University and a JD from Georgetown University Law Center.
