(19) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In April 2010, the Board of Directors approved a plan for the disposition of PHI’s competitive wholesale power generation, marketing and supply business, which had been conducted through Conectiv Energy. On July 1, 2010, PHI completed the sale of Conectiv Energy’s wholesale power generation business to Calpine. The disposition of Conectiv Energy’s remaining assets and businesses, consisting of its load service supply contracts, energy hedging portfolio, certain tolling agreements and other assets not included in the Calpine sale, has been completed.

The loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, was zero, $3 million and $107 million, respectively.
