OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Former executives and directors of Pacific Gas & Electric have agreed to pay $117 million to settle a lawsuit over devastating 2017 and 2018 California wildfires sparked by the utility’s equipment, it was announced Thursday. The settlement was announced by the PG&E Fire Victim Trust, which was established to handle claims filed by more than 80,000 victims of deadly wildfires ignited by PG&E’s rickety electrical grid. The trust’s lawsuit, filed last year, alleged that former officers and board members neglected their duty to ensure the utility’s equipment wouldn’t kill people. The complaint was an offshoot of a $13.5 billion settlement that PG&E reached with the wildfire victims while the utility was mired in bankruptcy from January 2019 through June 2020. As part of that deal, PG&E granted the victims the right to go after the utility’s hierarchy leading up to and during a series of wind-driven wildfires that killed more than 100 people and destroyed more than 25,000 homes and businesses, including the 2018 Camp Fire, which killed 85 people and destroyed much of the town of Paradise in Butte County.

The Diablo Canyon plant. Photo: AFP PHOTO/Mark Ralston (Getty Images) California’s largest single source of electricity has lived to see another day. In a surprisingly overwhelming vote, the California Senate early on Thursday morning moved to extend the life of Diablo Canyon, the state’s last remaining nuclear power plant and a major source of carbon-free electricity. The vote was on a bill proposed by Governor Gavin Newsom this month and introduced to the Legislature just a few days ago. The legislation will extend Diablo Canyon’s planned retirement date by five years, mandating its closure by 2030, and gives some state agencies loopholes around certain environmental laws to allow the plant to stay open. The bill frees up $1.4 billion in loans to the plant’s owners, Pacific Gas & Electric, to help the plant stay open, and also allows PG&E to submit an application for federal funding that closes this month. (Officials say that the federal government should be able to foot the cost for most of the $1.4 billion loan.) The plant still needs to apply to the federal U.S.

Threats of a coordinated attack on the U.S. power grid are serious and, if they occur, could result in deaths, serious injuries, social unrest and economic disaster. For decades, government reports, industry journals and academic articles have raised the alarm on the dangers of intentional attacks on the nation’s unprotected power grid. For example, in its 2014 report “Securing the U.S. Electrical Grid,” the Center for the Study of the Presidency and Congress called the nation’s power grid “an obvious target to a range of actors who would seek to strike at the U.S. homeland.” In 2007, the National Energy Technology Laboratory wrote, “The threat of both physical and cyber attack is growing and a widespread attack against the infrastructure cannot be ruled out.” With terrorist threats on the electric grid a reality, some utilities are taking measures to protect themselves from physical attacks on their infrastructure. Pacific Gas and Electric Co. (PG&E), for example, has doubled the number of Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ: KSCP) K5 Autonomous Security Robots in its lineup, bringing the number of machines guarding its facilities to 10.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom and a group of legislators reached a last-minute compromise to extend the lifespan of the state’s last operating nuclear plant by up to five years. But the proposal faces an uncertain future as the Legislature concludes its two-year session this week. To pass, the proposal to keep the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant running needs a two-thirds vote in the state Assembly and Senate, a threshold that can be difficult to reach. Last week, a competing proposal emerged from Democratic legislators that would use $1.4 billion to speed up development of renewable power and transmission lines, while leaving intact plans to shutter the twin-domed plant by 2025. Newsom has argued that the reactors are needed to fill gaps in the state power supply as California transitions to solar, wind and other renewables. He earlier proposed the reactors remain online for an additional 10 years, which was dropped in the latest version of the plan. The legislation is anchored to the assumption that operator Pacific Gas & Electric will qualify for a share of $6 billion the Biden administration has set aside to rescue nuclear plants at risk of closing.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — California legislators and Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office are discussing a possible compromise over the future of the state’s last operating nuclear power plant that could allow operator Pacific Gas & Electric to seek federal funds for a longer lifespan for the reactors. The tentative proposal would amount to a legislative placeholder, keeping the idea of an extended run for the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in play while giving the Legislature more time to consider earthquake safety, delayed maintenance and other issues at the site, located midway between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The plan surfaced amid the chaotic, final days of the Legislature’s two-year session, which ends at midnight Wednesday. On Aug. 12, the Democratic governor proposed extending the plant’s operating run by five to 10 years beyond its scheduled closing by 2025, which he said was necessary to maintain reliable power supplies in the climate change era. But legislators have complained about being bull rushed at the last minute with a vastly complex plan, which would have to be in print as a bill by late Sunday to be considered in this session.

"Tsunami Of Shutoffs": 20 Million US Homes Are Behind On Power Bills At least 20 million households -- or about 1 in 6 American homes -- are behind on their power bills as soaring electricity prices spark what is said to be the worst-ever crisis in late utility payments, according to Bloomberg , citing data from the National Energy Assistance Directors Association (Neada). Neada said electricity prices had increased significantly since 2020 after a decade of stagnation. The steep rise has resulted in billions of dollars in overdue power bills. Source: Bloomberg Electricity inflation is being propelled by soaring costs of fossil fuels, such as natural gas, coal, and petroleum. Source: Bloomberg NatGas fuels about 40% of the US power grid and soared to the highest levels since 2008 on Tuesday.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A proposal circulated Friday by California Democratic legislators would reject Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan to extend the lifespan of the state’s last operating nuclear power plant — and instead spend over $1 billion to speed up the development of renewable energy, new transmission lines and storage to maintain reliable power in the climate change era. The legislative plan obtained by The Associated Press reveals mounting tension between the Democratic governor and some members of his own party over a politically volatile issue. The rift was revealed one week after Newsom proposed giving plant operator Pacific Gas & Electric a forgivable loan up to $1.4 billion as part of a plan to keep the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant running beyond its scheduled closing by 2025. Newsom has argued that as hotter temperatures drive up the demand for power, the twin-domed reactors along the coast between Los Angeles and San Francisco would provide a necessary buffer against electrical blackouts, as the state transitions to power from solar, wind and other renewable energy sources.
