The last of Gov. Jerry Brown‘s three appointments to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), Mark Ferron, won confirmation from the California Senate to a six-year term that began last year. The five-member CPUC now has a full complement of regulators. Ferron, a former investment banker with Deutsche Bank, Salomon Brothers and Bank of America, brings a financial background to the regulatory panel. Prior to his appointment, Ferron was a senior partner at Silicon Valley Social Ventures and a board fellow of the New Teacher Center.
