Oregon Constructive regulatory / policy framework Federal • Oregon legislation requires 100% clean energy by 2040 • Oregon Public Utility Commission • Governor-appointed 3-member commission with staggered 4-year terms • Commission has consistently approved investments in renewables, going back to Biglow Canyon Wind Farm, which went online 15 years ago • Regulatory dynamics support PGE and the transition to clean energy • Renewable Portfolio standard (adopted in 2007; increased in 2016) • Renewable Adjustment Clause • Forward test years • Integrated resource planning framework • Accelerated depreciation of Colstrip to 2025 • History of reasonable settlements in rate cases • Regulatory support for recovery of storm response and wildfire mitigation costs • The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which was signed into law in August 2022, is expected to further enhance PGE’s already strong prospects for renewables-based growth • Better positions renewables to be owned and operated by regulated utilities like PGE and makes renewables more affordable for PGE customers • Allows for solar projects to elect ITC or PTC • Allows for the transfer of tax credits after 2022 • Standalone storage can earn tax credits • Makes tax credits available for renewable energy through the later of 2032 or when annual greenhouse gas emission in the U.S. electric sector falls 75% from 2022 levels • Effectively increases the competitiveness of renewables relative to conventional generation, bolstering long-term deployment • Improves the economics for repowering existing renewables as they age PGE’s regulatory framework in Oregon, along with the recently-signed IRA, position the company to play an important role in the decarbonization of Oregon 31


 
Annual power cost update tariff • Annual reset of prices based on forecast of net variable power costs (NVPC) for the coming year • Subject to OPUC prudency review and approval, new prices go into effect on or around January 1 of the following year • PGE can recover 80% of power costs prudently incurred during Reliability Contingency Events (RCEs) subject to the following criteria: • Day-Ahead Mid-C index prices exceed $150/MWh • PGE is eligible to request or acquire RA assistance through a regional RA program in which it participates • A neighboring Balancing Authority has publicly declared an event that indicates potential supply or actual supply constraints • PGE absorbs power costs/benefits, excluding the 80% RCE Cost recovery, within the deadband range. Amounts outside the deadband are shared 90% with customers and 10% with PGE, subject to an earnings test applied using the regulated ROE as a threshold • Customer surcharge occurs if PGE’s actual regulated ROE is below 8.5% (ROE will not exceed 8.5% with surcharge); Customer refund occurs if PGE’s actual regulated return is above 10.5% (regulated return will not decrease below 10.5% with refund) 9.5 10.5 8.5 R et ur n o n Eq ui ty (% ) ($15) million $30 million Customer Refund 90/10 Sharing Baseline NVPC 90/10 Sharing Customer Refund Customer Surcharge Customer Surcharge D ea d b an d Power Cost Sharing Power Cost Actuals Less RCE Costs Earnings Test 32 Detriment / (Benefit) PCAM Baseline at Year End(2): 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Over / (Under) ($7) ($3) ($10) $15 ($3) $5 $ (13) $30(3) $23 $5 Recovery of power costs (1) Costs estimated based on framework approved within the 2024 GRC (UE 416).

This press release contains certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted earnings guidance. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant items that are generally not related to our ongoing business activities, are infrequent in nature, or both. PGE believes that excluding the effects of these items provides a meaningful representation of the Company’s comparative earnings per share and enables investors to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operating financial performance. Management utilizes non-GAAP measures to assess the Company’s current and forecasted performance, and for communications with shareholders, analysts and investors. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Items in the periods presented, which PGE believes impact the comparability of comparative earnings and do not represent ongoing operating financial performance, include the following: • 2020: Certain energy trading losses • 2022: Non-cash Wildfire and COVID deferral reversal charge associated with the year ended 2020, resulting from the OPUC’s 2022 GRC Final Order earnings test • 2023: Boardman revenue requirement settlement charge associated with the year ended 2020, resulting from the OPUC’s 2022 GRC Final Order Due to the forward-looking nature of PGE’s non-GAAP adjusted earnings guidance, and the inherently unpredictable nature of items and events which could lead to the recognition of non-GAAP adjustments (such as, but not limited to, regulatory disallowances or extreme weather events), management is unable to estimate the occurrence or value of specific items requiring adjustment for future periods, which could potentially impact the Company’s GAAP earnings. Therefore, management cannot provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share guidance to the most comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, management is unable to address the probable significance of unavailable information. PGE’s reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings for the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2023 are on the following slide. 35 Non-GAAP financial measures
