A core part of PG&E’s Q3 presentation was its significant $73 billion 5-year capital agenda for 2026-2030, with plans to raise the company’s weighted-average rate base from $69 billion to $106 billion over 2025 to 2030. This demonstrates an estimated average yearly growth of 9%. There is a chance for an additional $5 billion in investment avenues that are advantageous for customers.

This capital agenda is divided across electric distribution, transmission, and customer benefits. The company mentioned that 93% of its 2026 capex has already been approved, offering clarity on short-term investments. The capital plan does not include $2.9 billion in SB 254 securitized capital.
