Found this article doing some computer upgrade work.
An industry view of BPL:

    which points you to
http://www.plcforum.org/
    and
http://www.silicon.com/opinion/164/1/4387.html
which article states as a reason why BPL will not be commercially viable:
"- Power cables are not physically symmetrical and are therefore very
effective antennas. They radiate energy from high-speed data signals which
becomes a source of interference for wireless services including broadcast
radio as well as emergency, maritime, aeronautical, military and navigation
services. By reciprocity they also suck in energy from every local radio
source which further degrades data signals. "

Interesting stuff out there.
