• 2017-2019 capital expenditure projections have increased by $4.6 billion from prior year projections, primarily due to the Wind XI investment at MidAmerican Energy, the development of solar energy projects at BHE Renewables, and the repowering of wind facilities at PacifiCorp and MidAmerican Energy, partially offset by lower growth capital investment at AltaLink Capital Investment Plan 850 780 985 846 1,620 896 1,691 617 1,709 409 1,649 349 457 403 386 340 376 386 591 546 520 515 420 483 384 354 256 180 344 211 334 74 83 65 86 69 366 542 252 582 231 721 4,673 3,316 4,191 2,937 4,726 3,115 $- $900 $1,800 $2,700 $3,600 $4,500 $5,400 2017 Current Plan 2017 Prior Plan 2018 Current Plan 2018 Prior Plan 2019 Current Plan 2019 Prior Plan $ M ill io n s PacifiCorp MidAmerican Funding NV Energy Northern Powergrid BHE Pipeline Group and Other BHE Renewables BHE Transmission


 
Financing Plan 2017 • MidAmerican Energy – In February 2017, issued $850 million of First Mortgage, green bonds comprised of two tranches: $375 million 10-year offering at 3.10% coupon, and $475 million 30- year offering at 3.95% coupon – Anticipate approximately $50 million of tax-exempt debt financing in late 2nd half of 2017 • Nevada Power and Sierra Pacific Power - Anticipate approximately $115 million of tax-exempt debt financing during 2017 • BHE Renewables – Anticipate non-recourse project financing of approximately $225 million for the Alamo 6 Solar project during the first half of 2017 • Northern Powergrid – Anticipate up to £150 million debt financing in mid-2017 for the development of smart metering services • AltaLink, L.P. – Anticipate debt financing of up to C$200 million in late-2017


 
Potential Tax Reform • We are not certain if tax reform will occur, and if so what it will entail • We expect any changes in law will be reflected in our regulated utilities revenue requirements. Any reduced tax rate will benefit customers, any loss of interest deductibility will be a detriment to customers, and any accelerated tax depreciation for capital will increase cash flow and decrease rate base. We believe the likely net impact is a reduction in customer rates • We believe there will be a one-time gain in the year the tax law is enacted related to the reduction of the tax rate applied to non-regulated deferred income tax liabilities. If interest is not deductible the interest cost at our parent and non-regulated subsidiaries will reduce cash flow and earnings, while accelerated tax depreciation will improve cash flow • Changes to rules on foreign income taxes may impact future dividend strategy and capitalization • We believe BHE is well positioned to adjust to changes made in tax legislation and we do not believe there will be any material credit impacts to BHE

Energy Choice Initiative Background • Energy Choice Initiative was a ballot initiative that amends the Nevada State Constitution “to open Nevada‟s energy markets and give consumers the option to purchase renewable energy and lower overall energy costs” • Initiative sponsored by Nevadans for Affordable, Clean Energy Choices Political Action Committee – Primary sponsors are Las Vegas Sands Corporation and Switch Ltd. • Initiative was placed on November 2016 general ballot as Question 3 – “Shall Article 1 of the Nevada Constitution be amended to require the Legislature to provide by law for the establishment of an open, competitive retail electric energy market that prohibits the granting of monopolies and exclusive franchises for the generation of electricity?” • In the November 2016 general election, the initiative was approved by 72% of voters • Initiative will appear on the November 2018 ballot, and must pass again with a majority vote in order for the Nevada State Constitution to be amended • If initiative passes in November 2018, the legislature will be required by Nevada State Constitution to provide implementing laws by July 1, 2023


 
Energy Choice Initiative Executive Order Issued February 9, 2017 • Nevada Governor Sandoval issued executive order establishing the Governor‟s Committee on Energy Choice • Purpose is to review, evaluate and develop written plans for the full implementation of energy choice by 2023, provided the initiative again passes by a vote of the people in 2018 • Appointed Nevada lieutenant governor as chair to 22-member committee, comprised of: – Attorney general of the state of Nevada – Two members each of the Nevada State Senate and the Nevada State Assembly – Consumer advocate of the Bureau of Consumer Protection – Appointment of remaining 15 members from NV Energy, rural/municipal co-op utility, large consumers of electricity, small to mid-sized businesses, Nevada Resort Association, mining, organized labor, senior citizen organizations, renewable energy industries, homebuilders and conservation organizations – Non-voting committee members include a member of Public Utilities Commission of Nevada, Nevada Governor‟s Office of Energy and Office of Economic Development • Report of recommendations due to Nevada governor no later than July 1, 2018, in advance of second vote in 2018 general election


 
Simple Framework to a Complex Transition Regulated and efficient competitive market July 2023 Level playing field for all retail providers Customer protections MARKET POLICY 564 jobs/$91.9 million payroll $3.2 billion owned generation assets $4.2 billion energy contract obligations (NPV 2020-2046) NO STRANDED ASSETS Wholesale market structure Retail market structure State regulatory functions Default and provider of last resort services Transmission and distribution services Energy policies and programs COMPLEXITY, RISKS & COST Resource adequacy Renewable and economic development Energy efficiency ENERGY POLICY No structural winners and losers No increase in prices paid over current model Reliable service CUSTOMERS NV Energy Respects Public Policy Transition Plan 2018 • Market Structure • Competitive Services • Regulatory Framework • Restructuring and Transition Costs


 
Fundamental Assumptions Consistent with the Energy Choice Initiative ballot language, the following may be assumed: • Power generation and energy supply will be established as a competitive service; will require utilities to divest of existing power plants, power purchase agreements and gas transportation contracts – NV Energy, and any affiliates, will be out of the power generation side of the business in order to prohibit the grant of monopolies for the supply of electricity • Transmission and distribution service will remain a regulated rate of return service due to the cost of duplicating investments – Consistent with what has been done in other fully competitive retail jurisdictions – Legislature need not provide for transmission and distribution deregulation to establish the competitive retail market • Default or provider of last resort service will not be provided by regulated utilities in order to prevent the grant of an exclusive monopoly – NV Energy will not provide default or provider of last resort services • Jobs for NV Energy colleagues will remain a primary focus of decision makers in the transition

Customer Retention Price and Service Improvements • Nevada Power average monthly residential bill lower today than in 2007 – Based on average usage of 1,141 kilowatt-hours – $140.77 January 2017 versus $141.91 October 2007 – 2017 mandatory general rate review objective would be no change or reduction in the revenue requirement, similar to 2014 • Sierra Pacific Power average monthly residential bill lower today than in 2007 – Based on average usage of 743 kilowatt-hours – $76.98 January 2017 versus $98.50 July 2007 – 2016 general rate case settlement resulted in $2.9m reduction to the electric revenue requirement • In 2016, NV Energy received its best TQS Inc. survey score ever of 93.5% for large commercial and industrial customers, a 1.6% improvement from 2015 and 5.4% increase from 2014


 
NV Energy Environmental Position • NV Energy is reducing use of coal-fueled generation – 2017 retirement of Reid Gardner Unit 4 (257 MW) – 2019 elimination of Navajo interest (255 MW) – 2025 retirement of North Valmy (261 MW) • Forecast(1) environmental expenditures include $4 million in 2017, $5 million in 2018 and $7 million in 2019 Nevada Power Asset Profile 64% 33% 3% Renewables and Other Natural Gas Generation Coal Generation Net Property, Plant and Equipment as of December 31, 2016 Sierra Pacific Power Asset Profile 74% 19% 7% Renewables and Other Natural Gas Generation Coal Generation Net Property, Plant and Equipment as of December 31, 2016 December 31, 2016 Power Capacity – 6,138 MW (2) Coal and Other 13% Natural Gas 87% (1) Environmental capital expenditures forecast excludes equity AFUDC (2) Net MW owned in operation and under construction


 
• Navajo Generating Station is a 2,250 megawatt coal-fired facility in-service in 1974 near Page, Arizona, on the Navajo Nation American Indian Reservation • Six owners: NV Energy, Salt River Project (operator), Arizona Public Service, Tucson Electric, Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation • NV Energy‟s ownership level (11.3% or 255 megawatts of the facility) resulted in the following amounts for 2016: – Operations and maintenance expense of $19.7 million – Capital expense of $5.8 million – Year-end undepreciated value of the plant of $57.1 million • February 2017, owners communicated lease will not be extended beyond expiration of December 22, 2019, for plant, water, coal and transmission • Discussion is underway between Salt River Project and the Navajo Nation to draft agreements necessary to operate through December 22, 2019 • If agreement is not reached by July 1, 2017, owners will begin decommissioning, demolition and remediation of the plant as required by the existing lease end date • March 2017, stakeholder meeting held in Washington D.C. to discuss long-term options for continued plant operation; follow-up meeting scheduled April 12, 2017 Navajo Generating Station


 
• Nevada Senate Bill 123, passed in 2013, already required NV Energy to eliminate its interest in the Navajo Generating Plant by December 31, 2019 – As part of the 2013 law, NV Energy was required to file a plan with the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada to reduce coal-fired generation under the emissions reduction and capacity replacement plan – NV Energy filed the plan in 2014, and approved by Public Utilities Commission of Nevada • Emissions reduction and capacity reduction plan allows for recovery of costs necessary to decommission, demolish and remediate the Navajo Generating Station site, as well as the undepreciated value of the plant at the time of retirement or elimination • Impact to NV Energy is minimal, as an early shutdown in 2017, would eliminate operating and maintenance expense related to operating Navajo Generating Station, allow for recovery of costs necessary to retire and remediate the plant and would eliminate a minimum dispatch provision, which would enable additional economic purchasing of energy for customers Navajo Generating Station
