Stan Wise has been a member of the Georgia Public Service Commission since 1995, serving as chairman for several terms.

The PSC, which regulates the state’s utilities, has been at the center of the fight over nuclear power in Georgia for decades. In December, the PSC voted to allow Georgia Power to continue the construction of two new reactors at nuclear Plant Vogtle near Augusta — despite years of delays and cost overruns.
