After decades of criticism by academics and practitioners, rate-of-return regulation is gradually giving way to “incentive regulation.” Since any regulation produces some incentives, the new label is somewhat confusing—moreso because of the diversity of approaches it encompasses, including price caps,2 sliding-scale regulation,3 and yardstick competition.4 The purpose of this paper is to demystify “incentive regulation” (IR) by laying out the key principles it incorporates, examining their implementation in regulatory practice, and evaluating the performance of various IR schemes.5
