Tax Reform Impact Impacts of Tax Reform in 2017 Financial Statements: • One-time gain of $516 million from 2017 Tax Reform • Deferred tax liabilities were decreased, largely offset by an increase in regulatory liabilities • The 2017 Tax Reform Act – Reduces the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 – Creates a one-time repatriation tax of foreign earnings and profits to be paid over the next eight years – Eliminates bonus depreciation on qualifying regulated utility assets acquired after September 27, 2017 – Extends and modifies the additional first-year bonus depreciation for non-regulated property • The 2017 Tax Reform Act and the related regulatory outcomes will likely result in lower revenue, income taxes and cash flow in future years. BHE does not expect the 2017 Tax Reform Act and related regulatory treatment to have a material adverse impact on its cash flows, subject to actual regulatory outcomes, which will be determined based on rulings by regulatory commissions expected in 2018 ($ millions) PacifiCorp MidAmerican Funding NV Energy BHE Pipeline Group BHE Renewables BHE Transmission HomeServices BHE & Other Corp Entities BHE Consolidated Impact to Net Income 6$ (10)$ (19)$ 7$ 628$ -$ 31$ (127)$ 516$ Decrease in eferred Tax Liability 2,361 1,822 1,115 621 703 161 31 301 7,115 Increase in Regulatory Liability 2,358 1,845 1,134 614 - - - - 5,950

Consolidated Environmental Position • We have significantly reduced our carbon footprint – Since 2000, we have added approximately 10 GW of wind and solar powered assets to our power capacity portfolio which are in operation or under construction as of December 31, 2017 – Owned coal-fueled capacity has declined as a percentage of BHE’s power capacity portfolio from 51% in 2000 to 29%, as of December 31, 2017 • Steam Electric Effluent Limitation Guidelines – For BHE’s operating companies, impacted waste streams are limited to bottom ash or fly ash transport water, combustion residual leachate and non-metal cleaning wastes – With minor exceptions, most new requirements are addressed by compliance with the coal combustion residuals rule – EPA issued a final rule September 18, 2017, extending certain compliance dates for flue gas desulfurization wastewater and bottom ash transport water limits from November 2018 to November 2020 • Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) – managing under current regulatory requirements; however, EPA is reconsidering portions of the final rule that may influence closure actions – PacifiCorp has 6 active surface impoundments and 4 active landfills; 3 inactive surface impoundments are undergoing closure – MidAmerican Energy operates 2 active surface impoundments and 4 active landfills. In addition, MidAmerican Energy has 6 inactive surface impoundments; 5 have been closed, and 1 is continuing closure activities – NV Energy operates 2 active evaporative surface impoundments and 2 active landfills; all other surface impoundments are undergoing closure by removal


 
• MidAmerican Energy Company, NV Energy and PacifiCorp posted the results of their groundwater detection monitoring on March 1, 2018, in advance of the required posting under the CCR rule • The ash ponds operated by the BHE companies are structurally sound and do not pose a risk to public safety • The majority of the groundwater monitoring results are consistent with naturally occurring substances, do not exceed standards for action and do not threaten drinking water or human health; however, some testing results require additional assessment or action • The companies are working with their states and other agencies to evaluate the groundwater results to identify and take actions that meet or exceed all applicable requirements and are consistent with our environmental respect principles. This may include action to close ash ponds and implement alternative disposal methods Coal Combustion Residuals


 
Reducing Carbon Footprint • Through fuel switching and retirements, BHE’s utilities expect to eliminate approximately 2,645 MW of coal generation through 2025 Coal MW as of Dec. 31, 2013(1) 10,529 MW Riverside 3 – retired in 2014 (4) MW Reid Gardner 1-3 – retired in 2014 (300) MW Carbon 1 and 2 – retired in 2015 (172) MW Riverside 5 – conversion to natural gas in 2015 (124) MW Walter Scott 1 and 2 – retired in 2015 (124) MW Neal 1 and 2 – retired in 2016 (390) MW Reid Gardner 4 – retired in 2017 (257) MW Naughton 3 – natural gas conversion or retire (280) MW Navajo – interest to be divested in 2019 (255) MW Cholla 4 – natural gas conversion or retire (395) MW Craig 1 – natural gas conversion or retire (83) MW North Valmy – to be retired in 2025 (261) MW Coal MW as of Dec. 31, 2025 7,884 MW (1) Adjusted for re-rating of coal plants between December 31, 2013, and December 31, 2017, including plants still in operation and retired

• Regulatory Rates Review – The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (PUCN) issued an order for Nevada Power on December 29, 2017, that included a 9.4% return on equity and requires sharing 50% of all revenue earned in excess of 9.7%; included rate reductions of $26 million, consisting of reductions in both fixed and volumetric charges to Nevada Power’s customers – Nevada Power and Sierra Pacific filed advice letters February 14, 2018, requesting approval of a tax rate reduction rider reducing electric rates for all customers of $59 million and $25 million, respectively; reflects 2017 Tax Reform, including the corporate federal income tax rate modification from 35% to 21% and the PUCN issued an order supporting the filing • Energy Supply Plan Update – Nevada Power and Sierra Pacific filed energy supply plan updates September 1, 2017, with the PUCN. Filing included a proposal to undertake a laddering strategy for acquiring energy, similar to approach taken for acquiring physical gas. Strategy would mitigate risk associated with increasingly tight capacity market during certain peak summer periods – The PUCN approved plans for Sierra Pacific on October 25, 2017, and Nevada Power on November 8, 2017 • Deferred Energy Accounting Adjustment Filings – On March 1, 2018, deferred energy accounting adjustment filings were made with the PUCN to review recovery of fuel and purchased power expenses incurred in 2017 and reset public policy program charges – Filing requested no change to fuel and purchase power rate, with slight reduction in public policy program charges of $4.0 million NV Energy Regulatory Update


 
• Energy Choice Initiative Investigatory Docket – Nevada Governor’s Committee on Energy Choice petitioned the PUCN to open docket identifying timeline, programs and statutes requiring revision and analyzing wholesale/retail market structures for implementation of a deregulation constitutional amendment – NV Energy indicated if the constitutional amendment passes then Nevada Power and Sierra Pacific will not be electric energy providers and indicated initial costs to customers of $5-$7 billion – Investigatory docket workshops held January 9-30, 2018; final report estimated April 2018 • Nevada Legislative Energy Committee – Nevada Legislative Energy Committee met January 10, 2018, with chairman stating there would be five meetings during the interim. Proponents of Question 3 gave a presentation on what they believe the constitutional amendment actually does, with numerous questions from committee members raising concerns. Audience included environmental groups, AARP© and lobbyists with energy and environmental clients • Petition for Declaratory Order – As a key component to double renewable energy production by 2023, NV Energy filed a petition for declaratory order requesting a finding that for renewable generating facilities owned by NV Energy, the PUCN has the authority to establish a reasonable rate by reference to market- based pricing rather than traditional rate-of-return analysis – After reaching an agreement with stakeholders at the hearing February 27, 2018, the chairman was complimentary and indicated he would prepare a draft order for commission consideration NV Energy Regulatory Update


 
Nevada Deregulation Constitutional Amendment Update Considerations Manageable Debt Maturities • Recent deleveraging strengthened both utilities’ equity ratios and financing flexibility • Bondable property exceeds outstanding debt, and is expected (excluding generation) to be sufficient to support transmission and distribution leverage, minimizing risk that debt is called because of insufficient property basis • 2018-2019 debt maturities may be refinanced with shorter tenures to maximize recapitalization options and ‘call’ flexibility and minimize potential make whole premiums, if necessary 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2023 NPC GRC Filing SPPC GRC Filing Voter Approval NPC GRC Filing SPPC GRC Filing Committee on Energy Choice Nevada Vote (Constitutional Amendment and Governor election) Energy Choice Report to Governor Legislature’s Deadline To Adopt Deregulation Legislation Legislative Session Legislative Session Legislative Session Legislative Session NPC GRC Filing PUCN Report due to Governor’s Committee on Energy Choice Adequate Liquidity • $650 million revolver capacity available • $125 million of issuance capacity under tax exempts • Effective SEC shelf registrations • Strong cash generation Capital Reductions • Legislature could enact deregulation anytime during the 2018–2023 period if constitutional amendment passes in November 2018 • Increased transmission and distribution spending and additional recovery of generation investments prior to the possible implementation of deregulation mitigates debt reductions • Both utilities will work with regulators to minimize transition costs and stranded asset if constitutional amendment passes


 
Consistent with the deregulation constitutional amendment 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 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 Fundamental Assumptions


 
Coalition to Defeat Question 3 • Coalition to Defeat Question 3, a bipartisan coalition to defeat the deregulation constitutional amendment, announced February 3, 2018 • Founding members include large and small businesses, elected officials, rural electric associations, IBEW, AFLCIO, and various community representatives • NV Energy joined the Coalition to Defeat Question 3 to make sure all Nevadans have the facts about this very complicated issue that has the potential to dismantle an electric system that has, and will continue to provide low costs, increased clean energy production, great customer service and industry-leading reliability • Ongoing efforts to increase membership in coalition and awareness of costs, risks and uncertainty of Question 3, a constitutional amendment that would drastically change Nevada’s electricity system • NOon3.com, Facebook and Twitter launched


 
Net Energy Metering Update • Net metering capacity installed as of December 31, 2017 was 238 MW • In June 2017, the Nevada Legislature passed Assembly Bill 405 that established revised net metering rules and provisions on how to credit excess energy that is fed back to the grid for systems less than 25 kW – Non-Time of Use Tariffs – The PUCN completed its regulatory proceedings and approved non-time of use private generation tariffs at the end of 2017 – Time of Use Tariffs – NV Energy negotiated a resolution with interested stakeholders, resulting in approval of four optional time of use schedules, one of which contains demand charges; agreement provides for stakeholders to work collaboratively to enroll a specified number of customers in each schedule – Status of New Private Generation Customers – Generation is netted monthly of received and delivered energy. Excess energy is credited at the following rates (excluding public program costs): • 1st 80 MW – 95% of retail rate o 20.3 MW of applications as of March 1 • 2nd 80 MW – 88% of retail rate • 3rd 80 MW – 81% of retail rate • Excess of previous 240 MW – 75% of retail rate

Alberta Economic Outlook Economic Recovery Underway, but Challenges Linger Alberta • In 2017, Alberta was Canada’s third largest economy and fourth most populated province • Alberta’s economy led all provinces in 2017, with estimated real GDP growth of 4.5% versus national average of 3.0%. Growth is expected to moderate to about 2.8% in 2018 • In December 2017, the Province’s unemployment rate fell to 6.9%. Comparatively, the national average unemployment rate was 5.7%. Alberta’s labor market continues to recover, with about 20,000 jobs created in the fourth quarter of 2017 • Alberta‘s crude oil production continues to advance, reaching a new high of over 1.8 million barrels a day in November 2017. However, oil pricing is negatively impacted by pipeline bottlenecks with the light-heavy differential widening in recent months AltaLink • No major system upgrades expected in the near-term. Renewables investments will leverage existing transmission infrastructure • After strong growth, load is levelling • AltaLink is not exposed to volume or price risk • AltaLink continues to be focused on reducing customer cost Source: Statistics Canada and Alberta Treasury Board & Finance Alberta Real GDP Growth 3.9% 5.7% 6.2% -3.7% -3.7% 4.5% -5.0% -3.0% -1.0% 1.0% 3.0% 5.0% 7.0% 2012A 2013A 2014A 2015A 2016A 2017E Source: Alberta Electric System Operator Alberta Electricity Demand (GWh) Average Pool Prices (C$/MWh) 80.2 49.4 33.3 18.3 22.2 43.0 0.0 10.0 20.0 30.0 40.0 50.0 60.0 70.0 80.0 90.0 2013A 2014A 2015A 2016A 2017A 2018F 74,000 75,000 76,000 77,000 78,000 79,000 80,000 81,000 82,000 83,000 2013A 2014A 2015A 20 6 2017A +3.2% +0.4% -0.9% +3.8

Phil Jones President and CEO Northern Powergrid Holdings Company 2018 Fixed-Income Investor Conference


 
Regulatory and Political Overview • ED1 performance continues to improve – Costs and outputs: on target – Customer satisfaction: 6 percentage points improvement from prior year – Network performance: 3 consecutive years of best-ever performance – Revenues reduce and RAV grows as regulatory asset life transitions to 45 years – Inflation protection continues to apply • Northern Powergrid is one of the companies with a clear slate in Ofgem’s DPCR5 close-out process • Ofgem’s RIIO2 Framework Consultation signals a commitment to the fundamental regulatory model, with some downward pressure on allowed equity returns from 2023 onwards • Ofgem’s decision on a Mid-Period Review is expected in Spring 2018 (1) – Plus RPI inflation (2) – ED1 indexed, figure stated for 2017-2018 (3) – Total activity costs (4) – 2012-2013 prices (£ millions) – U.S. GAAP 2017 2016 Revenues 737 735 Operating Income 339 363 Capex 488 404 RAV 3,132 2,989 Interest Coverage 3.3x 3.5x Debt to RAV 60% 62% Regulatory Parameters ED1 DPCR5 Allowed Equity Returns (1) 6.0% 6.7% Allowed Cost of Debt (1),(2) 2.3% 3.6% Annual Totex (3) vs DPCR5 95% 100% Average Annual RAV (4) Growth 1.2% 3.7% Regulatory Asset Life 20-45 years 20 years


 
• The rate of return across the energy industry is attracting political attention – Political concern has been heightened by some ill-informed comparisons between profit margins of capital intensive network companies and asset-light suppliers – Ofgem’s CEO has come out strongly in terms of highlighting this distinction, though returns on gas and transmission networks are at the high end of Ofgem’s expected range – Ofgem has encouraged voluntary reductions by companies with ‘excess’ returns – So far, this has not affected electricity distributors, but Ofgem has signalled lower allowed returns for all network companies in RIIO2 – In contrast to these concerns is a backdrop of significant value delivered to customers, record investment and lower network prices • The leadership of the main government opposition (Labour Party) is advocating a return to a pro-nationalization agenda – There is no specific proposal – and the language used continues to be vague – Significant costs of implementation for minimal customer savings mean the policy is not popular, even within much of the Labour Party – No imminent prospect of a change in government Regulatory and Political Overview
