Public Utilities include electricity, natural gas, water, and sewage.The sectors are specially regulated by a public utilities commission. Public utilities provide services at the consumer level.
Public ownership of utilities means that essential services like water, electricity, or gas are owned and operated by the government or a public entity, such as a municipality. This system is designed to ensure that these services are provided to the public at affordable prices and with a focus on public welfare rather than profit.
