The following long-term debt transactions occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2023:
PSE&G
issued $500 million of 4.65% Secured Medium-Term Notes (Green Bond), Series P, due March 2033.
issued $400 million of 5.13% Secured Medium-Term Notes (Green Bond), Series P, due March 2053.
Short-Term Liquidity
PSEG meets its short-term liquidity requirements, as well as those of PSEG Power, primarily through the issuance of commercial paper and, from time to time, short-term loans. PSE&G maintains its own separate commercial paper program to meet its short-term liquidity requirements. Each commercial paper program is fully back-stopped by its own separate credit facilities.
The commitments under the $4.2 billion credit facilities are provided by a diverse bank group. As of March 31, 2023, the total available credit capacity was $3.9 billion.
As of March 31, 2023, no single institution represented more than 10% of the total commitments in the credit facilities.
As of March 31, 2023, PSEG’s liquidity position, including credit facilities and access to external financing, was expected to be sufficient to meet its projected stressed requirements over a 12-month planning horizon.
Each of the credit facilities is restricted as to availability and use to the specific companies as listed in the following table; however, if necessary, the PSEG facilities can also be used to support its subsidiaries’ liquidity needs.
The total committed credit facilities and available liquidity as of March 31, 2023 were as follows:

(A)Master Credit Facility with sub-limits of $1.5 billion for PSEG and $1.25 billion for PSEG Power; sub-limits can be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Master Credit Facility agreement. The PSEG sub-limit includes a sustainability linked pricing based mechanism with potential increases or decreases, which are not expected to be material, depending on performance relative to targeted methane emission reductions.
(B)The primary use of PSEG’s and PSE&G’s credit facilities is to support their respective Commercial Paper Programs, under which as of March 31, 2023, neither PSEG nor PSE&G had any Commercial Paper outstanding.
(C)Amounts do not include uncommitted credit facilities.
A subsidiary of PSEG Power has an uncommitted credit facility for $150 million, which can be drawn to fund its cash collateral postings. As of March 31, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under this facility.
Net Cash Collateral Postings
During the second half of 2021 and continuing into 2023, forward energy prices have demonstrated considerable price volatility. This has led to significant variations in PSEG Power’s collateral requirements. As of March 31, 2023, net cash collateral postings were approximately $727 million. While currently off their highs experienced during 2022, collateral postings could remain volatile in 2023. However, as historical lower-priced trades continue to settle through 2024, collateral is expected to be returned as PSEG Power satisfies its obligations under those contracts.
Short-Term Loans
PSEG
In January 2023, PSEG repaid $750 million of the $1.5 billion 364-day variable rate term loan that was issued in April 2022 and in April 2023 the remaining $750 million matured. In April 2023, PSEG entered into a new 364-day variable rate term loan agreement for $750 million.
