SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY NOTICE OF APPLICATION FILING AFFECTING ELECTRIC RATES JOINT UTILITIES APPLICATION REQUESTING APPROVAL OF A NEW PORTFOLIO ALLOCATION METHODOLOGY FOR ALL CUSTOMERS, A SUMMARY On April 25, 2017, Southern California Edison Company (SCE) filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on behalf of itself, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) and San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) (Joint Utilities) for approval to put into effect the Portfolio Allocation Methodology (PAM). The application proposes a new methodology for electric generation costs and benefits to all customers. If approved, this application will not change the overall amount of revenues collected from SCE customers. However, this request will eventually impact rates for certain SCE customer classes. The timing and impact to rates have not been determined at this time. ABOUT THE APPLICATION The current methodology distributes the purchase costs of certain energy producing resources among all utility customers. This includes those who leave bundled service to receive electricity from an alternative provider (for example, an Electric Service Provider or a Community Choice Aggregator). These customers, known as departing load customers, currently pay these costs through a Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA) and a Competition Transition Charge (CTC) as part of their rates. Under PAM, the Joint Utilities propose that the current methodology for determining who is assigned these costs be replaced with a new methodology that would establish new Portfolio Allocation Charge (PAC) and CTC rates. Under PAM, all departing load and bundled service customers will pay an equitable portion of the actual market costs of the utility s generation portfolio based on how much was purchased on their behalf. All of these customers will also be assigned an equitable portion of the benefits associated with these resources. PAM will allocate these costs based on actual market results to more effectively protect customers from cost increases or shifts as a result of departing load. If the CPUC approves this application, electric rates for certain customer classes will be impacted. However, the overall amount of revenues collected from SCE customers for these

8 generation resources will not change. The timing and magnitude of changes to certain customer classes are not currently known, as PAM is not expected to be implemented until 2019, at the earliest. Rate changes will be implemented through future ratemaking proceedings and detailed rate impacts will be noticed at that time.
