Under AB 1054, the Utility is required to maintain a safety certification issued by the OEIS to be eligible for certain benefits, including a cap on Wildfire Fund reimbursement and [removed: a] [added: all aspects of the] reformed prudent manager standard.
Such funds could be depleted more quickly than [removed: expected,] [added: PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s 20-year estimate for the life of the Wildfire Fund (see Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8),] including as a result of claims made by California’s other participating electric utility companies.
If the Utility is unable to maintain [removed: an AB 1054] [added: a] safety certification or if the Wildfire Fund is exhausted, the [removed: inability to access] [added: ineffectiveness of] the Wildfire Fund could have a material effect on PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows.
In addition, there could [removed: also] be a significant delay between the occurrence of a wildfire and [removed: the timing on which] [added: when] the Utility recognizes impairment for the reduction in future coverage due to the lack of data available to the Utility following a catastrophic event, especially if the wildfire occurs in the service area of another participating electric utility.
Participation in the Wildfire Fund is expected to have a material impact on PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows, and the benefits of participating in the Wildfire Fund may not ultimately outweigh [removed: these] [added: the] substantial [removed: costs.][added: costs of the Utility’s contributions to the Wildfire Fund.]
PG&E [removed: Corporation] [added: Corporation’s] and the [removed: Utility could be liable as a result of] [added: Utility’s liabilities for] the 2019 Kincade fire, the [removed: 2020 Zogg fire, the] 2021 Dixie fire, [added: or] the 2022 Mosquito [removed: fire,] [added: fire could exceed their accruals,] or [added: they could be liable as a result of] future wildfires.
Based on the facts and circumstances available as of the date of this report, PG&E Corporation and the Utility have determined that it is probable they will incur losses in connection with the 2019 Kincade fire, the [removed: 2020 Zogg fire, the] 2021 Dixie fire, and the 2022 Mosquito fire.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility have been the subject of investigations, regulatory enforcement actions, [removed: or] [added: and] criminal proceedings in connection with wildfires and could be the subject of additional investigations, regulatory enforcement actions, or criminal proceedings in connection with the 2019 Kincade fire, the [removed: 2020 Zogg fire, the] 2021 Dixie fire, the 2022 Mosquito fire, or other wildfires.
The Utility continues to dispute the applicability of inverse condemnation to the Utility, but the Utility may not be successful in challenging the applicability of inverse condemnation in [removed: the 2019 Kincade fire, the 2020 Zogg fire, the 2021 Dixie fire, the 2022 Mosquito fire, or other] litigation against PG&E Corporation or the Utility.
[removed: The] [added: Once an ignition has occurred, the Utility is unable to control the] extent of [removed: damages for a wildfire is] [added: damages, which] primarily determined by environmental conditions (including weather and vegetation conditions), third-party suppression efforts, and the location of the wildfire.
In addition, wildfires have had and could continue to have (as a result of any future wildfires) adverse consequences on the Utility’s proceedings with the CPUC and the FERC, and future regulatory proceedings, including future applications with the OEIS for the [added: annual] safety [removed: certification required by AB 1054.][added: certification.]
PG&E Corporation and the Utility may also suffer additional reputational harm and face an even more challenging operating, political, and regulatory environment as a result of the 2019 Kincade fire, the [removed: 2020 Zogg fire, the] 2021 Dixie fire, the 2022 Mosquito fire, or any future wildfires.
For more information about the 2019 Kincade fire, the [removed: 2020 Zogg fire, the] 2021 Dixie fire, and the 2022 Mosquito fire, see Note 14 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
The Utility may be unable to recover all or a significant portion of its costs in excess of insurance coverage in connection with [removed: wildfires,] [added: wildfires] through [removed: rates, or from the Wildfire Fund in a timely manner.][added: rates.]
[removed: The] [added: PG&E Corporation and the] Utility could [added: also] incur substantial costs in excess of insurance coverage [removed: or amounts potentially available under the Wildfire Fund under AB 1054] in [removed: the future in] connection with the [removed: 2019 Kincade fire, the 2020 Zogg fire, the 2021 Dixie fire, and the] 2022 Mosquito fire.
The inability to recover all or a significant portion of costs in excess of insurance through rates [removed: or by collecting such rates in a timely manner] could have a material effect on PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows.
- [Attempts to acquire the Utility's assets and customers through municipalization or bypass.](#ic60d0ca8e16f419a9afc7a3747b2d67f_127)

For example, victims of wildfires in Southern California in January 2025 have filed lawsuits alleging that Southern California Edison’s equipment was associated with the ignition of such fires.
PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s accrued losses for the 2019 Kincade fire and the 2021 Dixie fire of $1.225 billion and $1.925 billion exceed the amounts of available liability insurance coverage of $430 million and $527 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 2024, the Utility has recorded probable recoveries of $602 million and $60 million for the 2021 Dixie fire and 2022 Mosquito fire, respectively, through FERC TO rates or as costs recorded to the WEMA.
The Utility would not be allowed to recover these costs in excess of insurance to the extent that the CPUC or the FERC determines that they were incurred imprudently.
The Utility has less control over contractors than its employees but may retain liability for the quality and completion of the contractor’s work.
In that case, gas assets with substantial investment value could become stranded, resulting in accelerated depreciation or impairment of assets.
The Utility could also be required to incur significant decommissioning costs, which may require additional funding.
Additionally, artificial intelligence, including generative artificial intelligence, may be used to facilitate or perpetrate these cybersecurity threats, and PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s use of generative artificial intelligence (and use by their vendors and agents) may subject them to data privacy, legal, and security risks.
New legislation, regulations, orders, or their interpretation could increase the Utility’s costs to operate DCPP or lead to the Utility ceasing operations at DCPP.
Operations at the Utility’s two nuclear generation units at DCPP could cease before their planned retirement dates in 2029 and 2030.
In addition, climate hazards have damaged and could again damage the Utility’s facilities.
The State of California has enacted privacy laws in recent years, and final regulations under the California Privacy Rights Act are under development.
*Tax*
The Inflation Reduction Act includes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on the adjusted financial statement income (“AFSI”) of corporations with average AFSI exceeding $1.0 billion over a three-year period, effective January 1, 2023.
If the law or its interpretation is not changed to permit PG&E Corporation to deduct repairs and maintenance expense, it will incur federal cash liabilities beginning in 2027, the amount of which may become substantial in future years.
See Legislative and Regulatory Initiatives in Item 8.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility could be subject to additional investigations, regulatory proceedings, or other enforcement actions.
OEIS has required and may in the future require the Utility to perform work for which the CPUC has not yet authorized recovery.
In addition, the Utility’s DOE Loan Guarantee Agreement contains similar covenants as well as certain affirmative and negative covenants, events of default, and prepayment events which are incremental to those contained in the Utility’s credit agreements and indentures.
Failure to comply with these covenants could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could accelerate PG&E Corporation’s or the Utility’s repayment obligations and could result in a default, acceleration or other consequences under other agreements.
For example, a default on indebtedness in a principal amount in excess of $200 million could result in a cross-default or cross-acceleration.
See “Liquidity and Financial Resources” in Item 7.
The CPUC also regulates the Utility’s capital structure.
Dividend payments on PG&E Corporation’s capital stock are also subject to the discretion of PG&E Corporation’s Board of Directors.
See Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1.
Other factors that could increase customer rates include increases in the Utility’s pass-through commodity costs, cost shifts resulting from self-generation of electricity by customers, decreased gas system load, technological developments, changes in federal or state subsidies, a decrease in the volume of sales, or load growth that is slower than PG&E Corporation and the Utility forecast.
High rates could also lead to a decline in the number of customers, which could further increase rates.

The costs of participating in the Wildfire Fund are expected to exceed $6.7 billion over the ten-year contribution period for the fund.
The timing and amount of any potential charges associated with the Utility’s contributions would also depend on various factors.
Once an ignition has occurred, the Utility is unable to control the extent of damages.
The Utility may not be allowed to recover costs in excess of insurance or amounts potentially available under the Wildfire Fund under AB 1054 in the future either through FERC TO rates or as costs recorded to the WEMA, even if a court decision were to determine that the Utility is liable as a result of the application of the doctrine of inverse condemnation.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility cannot predict the timing and outcome of the various proceedings and litigation in connection with its wildfire mitigation initiatives.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility could be subject to additional investigations, regulatory proceedings, or other enforcement actions as well as to additional litigation and claims by customers as a result of the Utility’s implementation of its wildfire mitigation initiatives, which could result in fines, penalties, customer rebates, other payments, or the Utility’s failure to obtain cost recovery for amounts expended on these initiatives.
In addition, the PSPS and EPSS programs have had an adverse impact on PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s reputation with customers, regulators and policymakers and future PSPS events and EPSS outages may increase these negative perceptions.
For more information, see “Regulatory Matters” in Item 7.
A substantial reduction in natural gas as an energy source in California without adequate and appropriate recovery of investments could result in impairment of the Utility’s natural gas infrastructure assets if they were not permitted to be repurposed for alternative fuels, were required to be depreciated on an accelerated basis, or were to become stranded.
The Utility continues to face public concern about the safety of nuclear generation and nuclear fuel.
Even if an action in opposition ultimately fails, regulatory proceedings may take longer to conclude and be more costly to complete.
It is also possible that public pressure could grow leading to adverse changes in legislation, regulations, orders, or their interpretation.
As a result, operations at the Utility’s two nuclear generation units at Diablo Canyon could cease before their respective current licenses expire in 2024 and 2025 or prior to the expiration of any renewed license and extended operations period.
In addition, in order to retain highly skilled personnel necessary to safely operate Diablo Canyon during the remaining years of operations, the Utility will incur costs in connection with (i) an employee retention program to ensure adequate staffing levels at Diablo Canyon, and (ii) an employee retraining and development program, to facilitate redeployment of a portion of Diablo Canyon personnel to the decommissioning project and elsewhere in the Utility.
The Utility may not be successful in retaining highly skilled personnel under its employee programs.
The Utility is pursuing the extension of operations at Diablo Canyon through no later than 2030.
If Diablo Canyon enters extended operations, the Utility will face operational challenges resulting from a shortened planning period.
For instance, the Utility may be unable to procure an adequate supply of nuclear fuel.
For more information, see “Extension of Diablo Canyon Operations” under “Other Regulatory Proceedings” in Item 7.
If the Utility were unable to recover these costs, PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows could be materially affected.
The Utility may incur a material charge if it ceases operations at Diablo Canyon’s two nuclear generation units before their respective current licenses expire in 2024 and 2025.
As of December 31, 2023, the Utility’s unrecovered investment in Diablo Canyon was $595 million.
In addition, climate hazards such as heatwaves, windstorms, and flooding caused by rising sea levels and extreme storms could damage the Utility’s facilities, including gas, generation, and electric transmission and distribution assets.
In June 2018, the State of California enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”), which went into effect on January 1, 2020, with a 12-month look-back period requiring compliance by January 1, 2019.
The CCPA requires companies that process information on California residents to make new disclosures to consumers about their data collection, use and sharing practices, allows consumers to opt out of certain data sharing with third parties and provides a new cause of action for data breaches.
The CCPA provides for financial penalties in the event of non-compliance and statutory damages in the event of a data security breach.
On November 3, 2020, Californians voted to approve Proposition 24, a ballot measure that created the California Privacy Rights Act (the “CPRA”), which amended and expanded the CCPA.
The State of California enacted the CPRA in November 2020, with most provisions operative as of January 1, 2023 and applicable to personal information collected beginning January 1, 2022.
Final CPRA regulations are in development.
Failure to comply with SB 100 could result in fines imposed on PG&E Corporation and the Utility that could be material.
offset future income.
California law and certain provisions in the Amended Articles and the amended and restated bylaws of PG&E Corporation (the “Amended Bylaws”) may prevent efforts by shareholders to change the direction or management of PG&E Corporation.
The Amended Articles and the Amended Bylaws contain provisions that may make the acquisition of PG&E Corporation more difficult without the approval of the Board of Directors, including the following:
- until 2024, the Board of Directors will be divided into two equal classes, with members of each class elected in different years for different terms;
- only holders of shares who are entitled to cast ten percent or more of the votes can request a special meeting of the shareholders, and any such request must satisfy the requirements specified in the Amended Bylaws; action by shareholders may otherwise only be taken at an annual or special meeting duly called by or at the direction of a majority of the Board of Directors, or action by written consent signed by shareholders owning at least the number of votes necessary to authorize the action at a meeting where all shares entitled to vote were present;
- advance notice for all shareholder proposals is required; and
- any person acquiring PG&E Corporation Equity Securities will be restricted from owning 4.75% or more of such Equity Securities (as determined for federal income tax purposes (see “Tax Matters” in Item 7.

The Utility could face fines, penalties, enforcement action, or other adverse legal or regulatory consequences for [removed: late inspections or other] noncompliance related to wildfire mitigation efforts.
Once an ignition has occurred, the Utility [removed: is] [added: may be] unable to control the extent of damages, which is primarily determined by environmental conditions (including weather and vegetation conditions), third-party suppression efforts, and the location of the wildfire.
As of December 31, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] PG&E Corporation and the Utility had recorded aggregate liabilities of [removed: $1.125] [added: $1.225] billion, [removed: $400 million, $1.6] [added: $1.925] billion, and $100 million for claims in connection with the 2019 Kincade fire, the [removed: 2020 Zogg fire, the] 2021 Dixie fire, and the 2022 Mosquito fire, respectively, and in each case before available insurance, and, in the case of the 2021 Dixie fire and the 2022 Mosquito fire, other probable cost recoveries.
These liability amounts correspond to the lower end of the range of reasonably estimable probable [removed: losses, unless expressly noted otherwise, but do not include all categories of potential damages and] losses.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility may be able to mitigate the financial impact of future wildfires in excess of insurance coverage [added: or self-insurance] through the Wildfire Fund, or cost recovery through rates.
Recorded liabilities in connection with the 2019 Kincade fire and the 2021 Dixie fire have [removed: already] exceeded potential amounts recoverable under applicable insurance policies.
As of December 31, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] the Utility has recorded insurance receivables of $430 million for the 2019 Kincade fire, [removed: $374 million for the 2020 Zogg fire, $526] [added: $527] million for the 2021 Dixie fire, and [removed: $63] [added: $90] million for the 2022 Mosquito fire.
[removed: As of December 31, 2023, the] [added: The] Utility has recorded [removed: a] [added: an aggregate] Wildfire Fund receivable of [removed: $600] [added: $925] million for the 2021 Dixie [removed: fire.][added: fire, of which it had received $169 million as of December 31, 2024.]
The Utility will be permitted to recover its wildfire-related claims in excess of [added: available] insurance and legal fees through rates unless the CPUC or the FERC, as applicable, determines that the Utility has not met the applicable prudency standard.
As of December 31, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] the Utility has recorded receivables for regulatory recovery of [removed: $561] [added: $602] million for the 2021 Dixie fire and $60 million for the 2022 Mosquito fire.
Other proceedings that could impact the Utility’s business profile and financial results include actions by municipalities and other public entities to acquire the electric assets of the Utility within their respective [removed: jurisdictions, and the Utility’s application to transfer its non-nuclear generation assets to Pacific Generation and potentially sell a minority interest in Pacific Generation.][added: jurisdictions.]
[removed: Risk Factors,] [added: See] Notes 3 and 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, and “Regulatory Matters” below.
The Utility has set a [added: long-term] goal to increase its capital investments to meet safety and climate goals, while also achieving operating cost savings.
Risk Factors and [removed: see] “Forward-Looking Statements” above for a list of some of the factors that may cause actual results to differ materially.
PG&E Corporation had a U.S. federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately [removed: $32.9] [added: $33.7] billion and a California net operating loss carryforward of approximately [removed: $32.6] [added: $34.9] billion as of December 31, [removed: 2023.][added: 2024.]
In general, an ownership change occurs if the aggregate [added: value of] stock ownership of certain shareholders (generally five percent shareholders, applying certain look-through and aggregation rules) increases by more than 50% over such shareholders’ lowest percentage ownership during the testing period (generally three years).
[removed: PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s Amended Articles limit Transfers (as defined in the Amended Articles) that increase a person’s] [added: These restrictions prevent any person] or [removed: entity’s] [added: entity] (including certain groups of persons) [removed: ownership of PG&E Corporation’s equity securities to] [added: from acquiring or accumulating] 4.75% or more [added: of the combined value of PG&E Corporation’s stock, including common stock and mandatory convertible preferred stock] prior to the Restriction Release Date (as defined in the Amended Articles) without approval by the Board of Directors of PG&E [removed: Corporation (the “Ownership Restrictions”).][added: Corporation.]
[removed: As such,] [added: For example,] based on the [removed: total number] [added: closing prices] of [removed: outstanding equity securities] [added: PG&E Corporation’s common stock and preferred stock as of February 5, 2025,] a person’s effective Percentage Stock Ownership limitation for purposes of the Amended Articles [added: as of February 5, 2025] was [removed: 3.88%] [added: 3.92%] of the [added: combined value of PG&E Corporation’s] outstanding [removed: shares.][added: common and preferred stock.]

Generally, PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s revenues vary based on the outcomes of ratemaking proceedings and the amount of pass-through costs incurred.
Factors that cause costs to vary include the cost of purchased power and fuel; the costs of procurement storage, transportation of natural gas; weather; criminal, civil and regulatory charges for wildfires; the outcomes of ratemaking proceedings; and increases in interest expense as a result of additional debt issuances.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed with the SEC in February 2024.
The Utility’s wildfire mitigation efforts have also benefited in recent years from improved ignition response and situational awareness tools like weather stations and risk modeling.
PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, each filed on June 22, 2020, and for PG&E Corporation, as amended by the Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation, filed on May 24, 2022 (the “Amended Articles”) contain restrictions on the direct or indirect acquisition or accumulation of PG&E Corporation’s stock.
Accordingly, although PG&E Corporation had 2,671,320,389 common shares outstanding as of February 5, 2025, only 2,193,576,799 common shares (the number of outstanding shares of common stock less the number of shares held directly by the Utility) count as outstanding for purposes of the ownership restrictions in the Amended Articles with the result that the ownership limitation based on the unadjusted outstanding stock of PG&E Corporation is lower than 4.75% and can vary based on the relative value of the common stock and mandatory convertible preferred stock on any particular date.
The computation of the Percentage Stock Ownership is complex, and persons considering purchasing PG&E Corporation’s stock should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the ownership restrictions to their particular situation.
- a decrease of approximately $345 million in revenues to recover insurance costs related to the Utility’s adoption of self-insurance in 2024;
- a decrease of approximately $230 million in revenues to recover costs associated with a lower allowance for doubtful accounts from residential customers in 2024.
- approximately $390 million in interim rate relief authorized in the WGSC proceeding (see “Wildfire and Gas Safety Costs Recovery Application” below) in 2024 with no similar amount in 2023;
- approximately $205 million in revenues authorized in the General Office Sale Memorandum Account (“GOSMA”) petition for modification final decision in 2024 with no similar amount in 2023;
- approximately $85 million related to the 2021 NDCTP final decision that ordered the Utility to issue a refund of the Non-Qualified Trust to customers in 2023 with no comparable refund in 2024.
The Utility’s cost of electricity represents the cost of power and fuel used in the Utility’s generating facilities and purchased from third parties to serve customers.
These decreases were primarily the result of lower natural gas market prices included as fuels costs for applicable Utility or third-party generating facilities, partially offset by lower net CAISO market sales revenues.
These decreases were primarily the result of lower natural gas procurement costs, partially offset by less favorable price risk management results, both of which were due to lower natural gas market prices for the period.
The Utility’s operating and maintenance expenses decreased by $126 million, or 1%, in 2024 compared to 2023.
These decreases were primarily due to:
- a decrease of approximately $230 million in costs associated with a lower allowance for doubtful accounts from residential customers in 2024.
- approximately $390 million in interim rate relief authorized in the WGSC proceeding (see “Wildfire and Gas Safety Costs Recovery Application” below) in 2024;
- approximately $210 million in costs related to a FERC order denying the capitalization of certain vegetation management costs and ordering the Utility to reclassify these costs to operating expense in 2024;
- approximately $175 million in revenues authorized in the GOSMA petition for modification final decision in 2024 with no similar amount in 2023;
- the write-off of approximately $60 million of costs as a result of the CPUC’s final decision denying the Pacific Generation application in 2024; and
- an increase in labor and benefit costs in 2024.
The Utility’s SB 901 securitization charges, net decreased by $1.23 billion, or 97%, in 2024 compared to 2023.
Costs related to wildfires increased by $30 million, or 47%, in 2024 compared to 2023.
These decreases were primarily due to less accelerated amortization of the Wildfire Fund asset and an increase in the estimated period of coverage of the Wildfire Fund from 15 to 20 years.
These increases were primarily due to the growth in plant balance from capital additions and an increase in decommissioning expense due to the reversal of approximately $175 million in accrued nuclear decommissioning expense as a result of the 2021 NDCTP final decision in 2023.
There was no material change to Interest income in 2024 compared to 2023.
There was no material change to Other income, net in 2024 compared to 2023.
The Utility’s Income tax benefit decreased by $1.4 billion, or 93%, in 2024 compared to 2023.
| | | | 2024 | | | | | | 2023 | | |
In 2024, California enacted a new law to suspend the use of net operating losses and limit the use of business credits for tax years 2024 to 2026.
As a result, PG&E Corporation expects to pay state income taxes in 2025 and 2026.
PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s various credit agreements and the DOE Loan Guarantee Agreement contain provisions that may result in an event of default if there was a failure to meet payment terms or observe other covenants under other financing arrangements that could result in an acceleration of payments due.
Such provisions are referred to as “cross-default” provisions.
As of December 31, 2024, PG&E Corporation and the Utility had Cash and cash equivalents of $235 million and $705 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 2024, $8 million was classified as Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents due to minimum capital and surplus requirements, and $905 million, measured at fair value, was classified as Wildfire self-insurance asset.
For more information about wildfire liability self-insurance, see “Self-Insurance” in Note 14 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
*Common Stock Offering*
On December 4, 2024, PG&E Corporation issued 55,961,070 shares of its common stock, no par value, for cash proceeds of $1.13 billion.
In particular, in 2023, the Utility introduced or expanded its use of several measures including downed conductor detection, partial voltage force outs, and transmission operational controls.
The Utility is also focused on undergrounding more lines each year while using economies of scale to make undergrounding more cost efficient.
For more information, see “Jurisdictions may attempt to acquire the Utility’s assets through eminent domain, and third parties may attempt to acquire the Utility’s customers by bypassing the Utility’s electric infrastructure system” in Item 1A.
As discussed below under “Update on Ownership Restrictions in PG&E Corporation’s Amended Articles,” shares of PG&E Corporation common stock held directly by the Utility are attributed to PG&E Corporation for income tax purposes and are therefore effectively excluded from the total number of outstanding equity securities when calculating a person’s Percentage Stock Ownership (as defined in the Amended Articles) for purposes of the 4.75% ownership limitation in the Amended Articles.
Furthermore, the activities of the Fire Victim Trust are treated as activities of the Utility for tax purposes.
At various dates throughout 2022 and 2023, the Fire Victim Trust exchanged Plan Shares for an equal number of New Shares in the manner contemplated by the Share Exchange and Tax Matters Agreement; the Fire Victim Trust thereafter reported that it sold the applicable New Shares.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fire Victim Trust’s sale of PG&E Corporation common stock in the aggregate amount of 247,743,590 shares resulted in an aggregate tax benefit of $1.2 billion recorded in PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Cumulatively through December 31, 2023, the Fire Victim Trust sold all of its 477,743,590 shares resulting in an aggregate tax benefit of approximately $2 billion recorded in PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Update on Ownership Restrictions in PG&E Corporation’s Amended Articles
For example, although PG&E Corporation had 2,611,366,666 shares outstanding as of February 14, 2024, only 2,133,623,076 shares (the number of outstanding shares of common stock less the number of shares held directly by the Utility) count as outstanding for purposes of the ownership restrictions in the Amended Articles.
As of February 14, 2024, the Fire Victim Trust reported having sold all of the shares of PG&E Corporation common stock it had owned and no longer owning any shares.

The decrease in PG&E Corporation’s net loss is primarily due to losses recorded in connection with the Wildfire-Related Securities Claims in 2022, with no comparable charges in 2023.
- an increase of approximately $360 million in revenues to recover the costs associated with RUBA in 2023.
These costs are passed through to customers and do not impact net income.
- the recognition of approximately $310 million in revenues related to the settlement agreement for the 2018 CEMA application (see “2018 CEMA Application” in Regulatory Matters in the 2022 Form 10-K) in 2022;
- a decrease of approximately $270 million in revenues to recover the costs associated with RTBA in 2023.
- the recognition of approximately $180 million in revenues related to the final decision approving $356 million in revenue requirements for capital expenditures incurred in the period from 2011 through 2014 for its gas transmission and storage system (see “2015 Gas Transmission and Storage Rate Case” in Regulatory Matters in the 2022 Form 10-K) in 2022.
Cost of electricity also includes net energy sales (Utility owned and third parties’ generation) in the CAISO electricity markets and directly with third parties.
The Utility’s total purchased power is driven by customer demand, net CAISO electricity market activities (purchases or sales), the availability of the Utility’s own generation facilities (including Diablo Canyon and its hydroelectric plants), and the cost-effectiveness of each source of electricity.
| Cost of purchased power, net | | | $ | 1,812 | | | | | $ | 2,283 | |
| Fuel used in own generation facilities | | | 631 | | | | | | 473 | | |
| Total cost of electricity | | | $ | 2,443 | | | | | $ | 2,756 | |
This was primarily the result of decreased customer demand volumes for the Utility’s bundled electric services, lower purchased power quantities due to contract expirations and higher net energy sales.
These decreases were partially offset by increased fuel costs due to higher natural gas prices occurring in early 2023.
| Cost of natural gas sold | | | $ | 1,589 | | | | | $ | 1,957 | |
| Transportation cost of natural gas sold | | | 165 | | | | | | 143 | | |
| Total cost of natural gas | | | $ | 1,754 | | | | | $ | 2,100 | |
This was primarily due to favorable price risk management results during the high natural gas price period in early 2023.
This decrease was partially offset by an increase in cap-and-trade program compliance costs in 2023.
The Utility’s operating and maintenance expenses increased by $2.2 billion, or 22%, in 2023 compared to 2022.
- the recognition of approximately $420 million in previously deferred expenses authorized in the 2020 WMCE proceeding in 2023;
- an increase of approximately $360 million in costs associated with RUBA in 2023.
- the recognition of $50 million in expenses in 2023, related to the civil stipulated judgement filed on May 31, 2023, by the Utility and the Shasta County District Attorney’s Office (“Shasta D.A.”) for the Shasta D.A. to dismiss with prejudice all criminal charges against the Utility in connection with the 2020 Zogg fire.
- the recognition of approximately $310 million of previously deferred expenses, which were authorized by the settlement agreement for the 2018 CEMA application (see “2018 CEMA Application” in Regulatory Matters in the 2022 Form 10-K) in 2022;
- the recognition of $85 million in expenses related to the Kincade SED Settlement (as defined in Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the 2022 Form 10-K) in 2022;
- the recognition of $77 million in charges as a result of its voluntary separation program in 2022;
- the recognition of $55 million in expenses related to the Kincade Stipulation and the Dixie Stipulation (each as defined in Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the 2022 Form 10-K) in 2022;
These costs are passed through to customers and do not impact net income (see “Operating Revenues” above); and

Their focus is on making it enjoyable to work with and for PG&E Corporation and the Utility.
These customers use their storage systems as critical backup power and for resiliency.
Costs can also decrease due to improved efficiencies or waste elimination.
All three credit ratings agencies have increased PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s issuer credit ratings since 2020.
In December 2024, PG&E Corporation announced a new dividend policy entailing consistent dividend increases targeting a dividend payout ratio of approximately 20% of core earnings by 2028.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility are committed to building a safe, reliable, sustainable, and climate-resilient energy system at the lowest possible cost for customers.
The Utility expects electric vehicle adoption, data centers, and building electrification to drive load growth.
However, the scale of this growth will depend on the Utility’s ability to construct necessary infrastructure and the extent of customer demand.
In 2024, the Utility continued to refine its inspection techniques, transitioning to the use of aerial drones to perform inspections on circuits located in HFTD areas.
In 2024, the Utility undergrounded 259 miles of lines.
When feasible, remote grids can be a more cost-effective option to reduce fire risks by permanently disconnecting end-of-line customers from the grid and serving them with utility owned, locally sited resources.
The Utility brought online five additional remote grids in 2024, for a total of 11 remote grids overall.
The Utility experienced an increased number of CPUC-reportable ignitions in 2024, compared to 2022 and 2023, due to hotter, drier weather conditions.
The Utility focuses on continuous improvement and risk informed decision-making to maximize asset value for customers, while adhering to industry standards for asset risk management and lifecycle optimization.
Work management systems enable the execution and tracking of preventative and corrective maintenance strategies for generation assets.
Capital improvements are carried out to renew key asset components and are strategically aligned with interim risk reduction measures to ensure long-term safe and reliable generation.
Air Quality and the Clean Air Act
For information regarding regulation of greenhouse gas emissions, see “Sustainability and Resiliency” below.
The FERC typically authorizes the Utility to charge new rates based on the requested revenue requirement, subject to refund, before the FERC has issued a final decision.
The Utility bills and records revenue based on the amounts requested in its rate case filing and records a reserve for its estimate of the amounts that are probable of refund.
The legislation includes language that limits use of the volumetric payment to accelerate, or increase spending on, public purpose priorities enumerated in SB 846.
The Utility’s turnover rate for each of 2024 and 2023 was 4.0%.
All executive officer compensation is paid by PG&E Corporation.
Identifying, eliminating and mitigating high-energy hazards remains a priority.
In particular, the Utility improved safety through the implementation of the Utility’s safety excellence management system and a focus on essential controls for high energy hazards.
Specialized teams facilitate awareness, education and dialogue and support the groups at the enterprise level.
The Utility’s employees represent five generations, most of whom are Millennials (49%), Generation X (37%), and Boomers (10%).

This 2023 Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that are necessarily subject to various risks and uncertainties.
For a discussion of the significant risks that could affect the outcome of these forward-looking statements and PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and cash flows, see Item 1A.
Risk Factors and “Forward-Looking Statements” above.
Mitigating and adapting to the impacts of climate change presents opportunities for growth for the Utility’s business and economic opportunity for the communities it serves.
Peak electric loads are expected to increase with increasing temperatures due to direct impacts of ambient temperatures on equipment and direct impacts on electricity demand driven by rising air conditioning installation and usage, and increasingly driven in the future from widespread progress in adoption of strategic electrification technologies.
Climate change will also continue to intensify the potential for wildfires throughout California.
The CPUC coordinates the planning of supply resources through the Integrated Resource Planning (“IRP”) proceeding and has determined that replacing the power generated by Diablo Canyon is the responsibility of all LSEs within the CAISO.
Looking ahead, the Utility expects its GHG-free energy supply mix of renewable, large hydroelectric, and nuclear generation resources to decrease as, beginning in 2023, the Utility was required to offer, for allocation or sale, renewable sources eligible under California's RPS program that the Utility procured on behalf of customers that subsequently switched to non-Utility providers.
These requirements were established to comply with regulatory mandates and to manage customer affordability.
Towards the end of the decade and beyond, the Utility’s GHG-free energy supply mix is expected to grow relative to 2025 levels as the Utility procures new GHG-free generation and storage to meet California’s IRP GHG emissions reduction targets and California’s clean energy goals.
PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s voluntary goal continues to be to deliver 70% RPS clean electricity by 2030, compared to a state mandate of 60% (see “Air Quality and Climate Change” below for more information).
PG&E Corporation and the Utility expect that reducing the consolidated debt will help them achieve investment grade credit ratings for their unsecured securities, for the benefit of both customers and investors.
MD&A.
In 2022, an affiliate of the Utility issued an aggregate of $7.5 billion of SB 901 securitization bonds.
The net proceeds were used to reimburse the Utility for previously incurred recovery costs, including the retirement of $6.0 billion of Utility debt, as of December 31, 2023.
In November 2023, the Board of Directors of PG&E Corporation reinstated the dividend on PG&E Corporation common stock, declaring a dividend of $21 million, or approximately 1 cent per share, which was paid by January 16, 2024.
The Boards of Directors of PG&E Corporation and the Utility had suspended quarterly cash dividends in 2017 on both PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s common stock, as well as the Utility’s preferred stock.
For more information, see “Liquidity and Financial Resources - Dividends” in Item 7.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility are committed to finding ways to lower the cost of providing gas and electric services for customers.
PG&E Corporation and the Utility are committed to designing an electric system that is resilient to climate change, decarbonized, and optimized to local and system needs.
The Utility is also increasing oversight and engagement with the contractors supporting vegetation management work.
In 2023, the Utility continued to refine its risk modeling, including further incorporating data from asset inspections.
In 2023, the Utility undergrounded 364 miles of lines, nearly double the number of miles undergrounded in 2022.
Remote grids can also reduce costs and fire risks, while maintaining service to participating customers.
The Utility brought online two additional “remote grids” in 2022, which allow distribution lines in HFTDs to be removed and replaced with locally sited resources.
The Utility also significantly reduced both the size and number of CPUC-reportable ignitions and number of acres burned in 2023, compared to prior years.
These measures built on the Utility’s progress in 2022, when it expanded the EPSS program to all high fire risk areas.
In 2022 and 2023, the Utility took additional steps to improve customer reliability through several targeted programs, including vegetation management activities to reduce vegetation caused outages, upgrading the system to improve sectionalization, and installing fault indicators to reduce restoration times.
The Utility’s gas system has not had a safety-related incident that affected the public and resulted in a fatality or injury since 2015 or 2018, respectively.
In 2023, the NTSB confirmed that the Utility had successfully addressed all 12 safety recommendations relating to the San Bruno explosion.
Winter precipitation and snowpack provided fuel for increased hydro generation in 2023, exceeding the 15-year average.
The Utility is focused on continuous improvement of asset management and work management systems to support comprehensive non-nuclear generation asset management.
The goal of these efforts is to further improve project execution capabilities and capacity to deliver on asset improvements necessary for long-term safe and reliable generation.
Air Quality and Climate Change
*Federal Regulation*
Although there have been several legislative attempts to address climate change through imposition of nationwide regulatory limits on GHG emissions, comprehensive federal legislation has not yet been enacted.
In the absence of federal legislative action, the EPA has used its existing authority under the Clean Air Act to address GHG emissions.
Tackling the climate crisis is a key priority of the Biden Administration, and the Administration is using its executive and regulatory authorities to target emissions reductions in line with science-based targets.
On May 11, 2023, the EPA released proposed new GHG emissions standards for fossil fuel-fired power plants under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act.
The proposal sets standards for new and existing coal and natural gas-fired plants – stringency of the standards differ based on timelines, unit type, capacity factors, and operating horizon.

| Liabilities incurred | | | — | | | | | | 134 | | |
The ARO liability decreased from $5.9 billion as of December 31, 2022 to $5.5 billion as of December 31, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in nuclear decommissioning and hydroelectric facilities ARO.
In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Utility recorded a downward revision to its hydroelectric facilities ARO of $205 million as a result of a revised decommissioning cost estimate.
As of December 31, 2023, the Utility recorded a $253 million downward adjustment to the nuclear decommissioning ARO to reflect the CPUC’s decision to approve Diablo Canyon’s extended operations until 2030 and the conditional award from the DOE’s Civil Nuclear Credit Program.
See “U.S. DOE’s Civil Nuclear Credit Program” below.
The Utility classifies its debt investments held in the nuclear decommissioning trusts as available-for-sale.
Since the Utility’s nuclear decommissioning trust assets are managed by external investment managers, the Utility does not have the ability to sell its investments at its discretion.
Therefore, all unrealized losses are considered other-than-temporary impairments.

(1) On January 11, 2024, the Utility received $233 million in disbursements from the DWR.
On July 20, 2022, PG&E Wildfire Recovery Funding LLC issued $3.9 billion aggregate principal amount of senior secured recovery bonds (the “Series 2022-B Recovery Bonds”).
The Lease required the Landlord to pursue approvals to subdivide the real estate it owns surrounding the Lakeside Building to create a separate legal parcel that contains the Lakeside Building (the “Property”) that can be sold to the Utility, and the process of subdividing the real estate was completed on February 6, 2023.
Additionally, the $75 million option payment letter of credit was returned to the Utility.
