Bringing home our support for veterans

Championing people and doing the right thing are two of Sempra’s values on full display as we help make new homes a reality for two deserving U.S. Army veterans. Former Army Specialist Kisha Dorsey and Former Army Sergeant James Ford will soon move into new homes built by PulteGroup, Inc. in the Houston suburbs, and donated through their Built to Honor program to Operation Homefront. After successfully completing a comprehensive program with Operation Homefront caseworkers and financial counselors who will help them prepare for long-term home ownership, the families will be deeded the homes mortgage-free. These homes and services were made possible thanks to PulteGroup, Inc. and a $50,000 grant by Sempra to Operation Homefront. Helping veterans like Kisha Dorsey become homeowners Kisha Dorsey proudly served in the U.S. Army until the physical demands of military life took its toll and injuries forced her to retire. She faced a new set of obstacles returning to civilian life, including losing her job and enduring tough economic circumstances. For a time, she thought she’d have to move into a homeless shelter or live on the streets because she couldn’t afford housing. Kisha is a loving, single mom with two boys, one of whom was born with autism after suffering a stroke in utero. Her perseverance and drive landed her a new job as a payroll administrator for Lone Star College in Houston where she works to provide for her sons and to give them access to critical health and developmental services. Owning a home will help meet her sons’ needs and set up her family for success. She told us if she could draw her dream home, it would look a lot like the one she is being awarded in the Houston suburb of Hockley, Texas. “It checks all of the boxes,” she said of her new home. “I have a great community in that area. It is in a safe neighborhood and it will be amazing just to own a home. All the rest is for my kids, but that part is the dream for me. To be a homeowner will make my day and my year and my decade. It will make all of the struggle and striving so worth it.” Empowering veterans like James Ford to succeed The second veteran to receive a home is James Ford. Former Army Sergeant and combat engineer, Ford planned on a long military career but an enemy attack in Afghanistan resulted in the loss of his right leg below the knee. Despite the severe injury, Ford is focused on not letting anything hold him back. He is in the process of completing a master’s degree at Texas A&M and plans to pursue a Ph.D. in ecology and evolutionary biology at Rice University in Houston. The awarded home will help give Ford’s family, two kids and his service dog, a place to settle down. “It will mean so much,” Ford said of the new house. “My daughter will have her own room and the option to do with the space what she wants.” He is also hopeful the new, mortgage-free home will allow him to give back to fellow disabled veterans in the future. After school, James wants to form his own research company that would employ disabled veterans. Championing people with Operation Homefront Operation Homefront is a national nonprofit co-headquartered in San Antonio, Texas and Arlington, Virginia, focused on building strong, stable and secure military families so they can thrive in the communities they’ve worked so hard to protect. The organization’s Permanent Homes for Veterans program has helped more than 700 veterans since its inception in 2012 with an opportunity to move into their own homes, mortgage-free, thanks to the generous support of individual and corporate donors. At the end of January, the local Houston community gathered with these veteran families at the groundbreaking event, officially kicking off the construction process for both homes. With a mission to be North America’s premier energy infrastructure company, Sempra is focused on building resilient energy networks to support a growing Texas economy. Putting our energy behind Texas means not only moving our business forward, but actively supporting Texas communities and organizations that are addressing some of the greatest social needs in the state.

SoCalGas Begins Assembling Award-Winning H2 Hydrogen Home

LOS ANGELES, March 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) has kicked off the assembly of its award-winning H2 Hydrogen Home in Downey, a state-of-the-art demonstration project designed to show the resiliency and reliability of a hydrogen microgrid. The company took delivery of the modular, prefabricated H2 Hydrogen Home, which is the first of its kind in the United States and will show how carbon-free gas made from renewable electricity can be used to fuel clean energy systems of the future. The home will act as a miniature microgrid – storing and providing resilient, low-carbon power when energy is needed – and demonstrate how such an energy system could be constructed on a larger scale to power residential neighborhoods and businesses. "For the past decade, SoCalGas has invested in hydrogen research and development, recognizing it as a critical component of our transition to net-zero emissions," said Maryam Brown, SoCalGas President. "The H2 Hydrogen home brings many of the technologies that we helped pioneer together under one roof in a unique showcase of how California might power resilient communities and businesses in the future." "The H2 Hydrogen Home is a tangible example of the cutting-edge technologies and clean energy systems that we will need to meet our net-zero carbon goal by 2045," said California Assemblymember Cristina Garcia. "As we shift toward a future of renewable electricity in California, we will rely on a variety of energy solutions, including hydrogen and advanced fuel cells to create a more resilient grid. I am proud that this first in the nation example will be showcased in the 58th district." "From our days as the home of the Apollo Space Systems, we in the City of Downey have been proud to be at the forefront of new and developing technologies," said Downey Councilmember and former Mayor Claudia M. Frometa. "Now we are excited to be a part of this historic moment in furthering the development of green hydrogen." The H2 Hydrogen Home features a nearly 2,000 square-foot home, solar panels, a battery, an electrolyzer to convert solar energy to hydrogen and a fuel cell to supply electricity for the home. Hydrogen will also be blended up to 20% with natural gas and used in the home's tank-less water heater, clothes dryer, and gas stove, fireplace and BBQ grill. The home will function and feel exactly like a regular home but use reliable and clean energy 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, by drawing power from solar panels on sunny days and converting excess energy into clean hydrogen, which can be stored and then converted back into electricity with an on-site hydrogen fuel cell when solar or batteries cannot provide enough energy. The home is also being constructed to LEED Platinum standards. The materials for the home were delivered this week by clean Class 8 trucks powered by hydrogen and electric power supply systems that only emit water. The featured participants included two Hyundai XCIENT Fuel Cell trucks, part of a California Air Resources Board (CARB) and California Energy Commission (CEC) project called "NorCal ZERO" to deploy or supply 30 trucks in Northern California by early 2023, as well as two Kenworth T680s equipped with the Toyota fuel cell electric system, which are being demonstrated as part of the CARB Port of Los Angeles "Shore to Store" (S2S) project. SoCalGas is on the cutting edge of clean energy technology, leading the nation in the march toward net zero through innovative hydrogen projects. In March 2021, it became the largest gas distribution utility in North America to set a net zero target for greenhouse gas emissions in its operations and delivery of energy by 2045. Hydrogen is set to play a critical part in SoCalGas' – and California's – energy future, particularly in transitioning hard-to-decarbonize sectors such as dispatchable electric generation, heavy industries, and heavy-duty transportation. In all, SoCalGas has more than 10 major pilot projects related to hydrogen innovation that are leading the charge to build a cleaner future. Just last week, SoCalGas proposed to develop what would be the nation's largest green hydrogen energy infrastructure system to work toward decarbonizing those sectors in the L.A. Basin. The proposal, called Angeles Link, could displace up to 3 million gallons of diesel per day, helping to eliminate hazardous air pollutants, and could allow natural gas power plants in the region to convert to green hydrogen. Last summer, Fast Company named the H2 Hydrogen Home one of its world-changing ideas for 2021. The project is set to be completed as soon as summer 2022.

Helping create economic opportunity for Black communities

The Sempra family of companies have long supported Black and African American communities as part of the company’s ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusion and vision to deliver energy with purpose. Rooted in the belief that economic opportunity and prosperity are central to advancing equity, we work hard to foster strategic relationships with the communities and customers our operating companies serve. In fact, in the last year alone, Sempra’s family of companies engaged nonprofit organizations serving nearly 100,000 Black and African American people across the U.S. This year, Sempra’s corporate priority of economic prosperity is focused on educational attainment, job creation and security, financial stability and wellbeing, entrepreneurship and professional growth and development to further drive economic stability and prosperity for Black and African American communities. Helping to eliminate barriers Expanding upon our work to foster strong and sustainable communities in Texas, Sempra recently partnered with the Houston Area Urban League to launch the League’s Entrepreneurship Center’s Small Business University and Small Business Exchange. Both programs seek to eliminate barriers faced by Black- and other diverse-owned businesses and entrepreneurs of color by providing support through all stages of entrepreneurship — from early discovery and start-up, to small business growth, development and success. Supporting the expansion of access San Diego-based social enterprise, Mission Edge, brings entrepreneurs’ ideas to life by providing strategic support, operational tools and financial sponsorship to nonprofits and social-purpose businesses. Sempra supports Mission Edge’s Seed the Future Impact Fund, which provides access to capital for early-stage entrepreneurs. The Fund addresses a systemic barrier faced by businesses that are owned and operated by Black and other founders of color: gaining access to seed capital. When seed money and intensive technical and sales support are provided to business owners and operators in underserved communities, the result is often growth, scale, and profitability. In addition to these examples, Sempra’s California utilities, Southern California Gas Company ( SoCalGas) and San Diego Gas & Electric Company ( SDG&E) have made meaningful contributions toward Black and African American communities. Mapping Black California, an initiative supported by SoCalGas, illustrates the impacts of COVID-19 on Black and African American communities along with locations of Black-led nonprofits in SoCalGas' service area. By identifying gaps, SoCalGas and others can pinpoint opportunities to better support these communities. In another example, SDG&E supported an exhibit entitled “Say Their Names,” which commemorates the lives of 200 Black individuals who were killed as a result of racial injustice, and highlights civil rights leaders in its service area. At Sempra, our values of do the right thing, champion people and shape the future are drivers of year-round actions. We believe in the power and impact of sustained relationships and community investments and continually seek opportunities to support Black and African American communities in priority areas such as education, economic empowerment and entrepreneurship.

U.S. Utility Growth Over the next five years, Sempra continues to see robust opportunities to invest over $33 billion in its California and Texas utilities to improve safety, bolster reliability and support the delivery of cleaner sources of energy. Together with expected capital expenditures at Sempra Infrastructure, the company is forecasting a company-record five-year capital plan of approximately $36 billion. These utility investments support strong projected rate base growth. Over the past four years, Sempra has grown its U.S. utility rate base from $14 billion to $41 billion and forecasts rate base to further increase to $62 billion by 2026. Common Stock Dividend Increased for 12 th Consecutive Year Sempra's board of directors declared a $1.145 per share quarterly dividend on the company's common stock, which is payable April 15, 2022, to common stock shareholders of record as of March 25, 2022. The declared quarterly dividend represents an increase of the company's common stock dividend to $4.58 per share, on an annualized basis, from $4.40 per share in 2021. This marks the 12 th consecutive year Sempra has raised its dividend and, coupled with $1 billion of share repurchases since July 2020, highlights the company's long track record of returning value to shareholders. The foregoing includes $500 million of share repurchases that have been completed since November 2021. There is remaining board authorization for $1.5 billion to support share repurchases in the future. Additionally, Sempra's board of directors declared a semi-annual dividend of $24.375 per share on the company's 4.875% Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C. The preferred stock dividends will be payable April 15, 2022, to preferred stock shareholders of record at the close of business on April 1, 2022. Sempra California Prioritizes Safety and Reliability Sempra's California utilities, San Diego Gas & Electric Co. (SDG&E) and Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas), are well positioned to support California's ambitious clean energy goals. In 2021, the utilities innovated to better serve customers, improved operational safety and reliability, and supported the modernization of their energy networks with a focus on climate resiliency. To help strengthen grid reliability during periods of high customer demand and extreme weather conditions, SDG&E has been increasing its diverse portfolio of energy storage solutions, including mobile batteries, flow batteries and microgrids. Recently, SDG&E completed a zero-emissions microgrid pilot project using a vanadium redox flow battery – the first utility-scale battery of its kind to be connected to the California Independent System Operator market. In December 2021, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) authorized SDG&E to add 40 megawatts (MW) of energy storage as part of new microgrid projects. Additionally, SDG&E was authorized earlier this month to build three new energy storage facilities to further enhance the region's energy resilience. These three projects, expected to total 161 MW, would be able to provide enough capacity to meet the energy needs of up to 100,000 homes for up to four hours. Yesterday, the CPUC took an important step to advance clean fuels in California by establishing a renewable gas procurement standard, reaffirming the role of renewable gas and providing a collective target for California's investor-owned gas utilities of 17.6 billion cubic feet (Bcf) by 2025 and approximately 72.8 Bcf (12.2% of 2020 core customer demand) by 2030. SoCalGas is continuing to progress toward its previously announced goal of 20% renewable natural gas (RNG) deliveries to its core customers by 2030, delivering more than 4% RNG to core customers in 2021. In support of California's clean energy goals, SoCalGas recently announced a proposal to develop what would be the nation's largest green hydrogen energy infrastructure system, the Angeles Link. As contemplated, the Angeles Link would support the integration of more renewable electricity resources and deliver green hydrogen to the Los Angeles region in an amount equivalent to up to 25% of the natural gas SoCalGas delivers today and has the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from electric generation, industrial processes, heavy-duty trucking and other hard-to-electrify sectors in Southern California. Sempra Texas Continues to Experience Strong Growth In 2021, Oncor Electric Delivery Company (Oncor) announced its five-year capital plan for 2022-2026 of $15 billion. This robust capital plan is designed to support the rapid economic growth in Texas as well as improve safety and reliability across the company's entire electrical network. High demand for electrification in Texas drove a company record of approximately 400 active transmission point of interconnection requests as of December 31, 2021, representing a nearly 40% year-over-year increase. Oncor maintained strong operational momentum in 2021, constructing new projects to support growth across the state of Texas and reliability for the ERCOT market. In West Texas, Oncor completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 of its 138 kilovolt and 345 kilovolt transmission infrastructure projects, which are designed to strengthen the transmission infrastructure and improve load-serving capabilities in West Texas. Sempra Infrastructure Advances Strategic Initiatives Sempra Infrastructure was formed in 2021 through the consolidation of Sempra's North American non-utility assets under a single platform intended to create scale and portfolio synergies through the investment in critical energy infrastructure. The company is organized around three core business groups: LNG and net-zero solutions, energy networks, and clean power. Sempra Infrastructure expects to finance its growth through internally generated cash flows and a strong balance sheet supported by investment grade ratings. In 2021, Sempra executed a series of transactions, including the completion of its previously announced sale of a 20% non-controlling interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners to KKR. Following the close of the transaction, Sempra entered into a definitive agreement to sell another 10% non-controlling interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners to a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA). Total expected proceeds for both transactions are approximately $5 billion. In combination, proceeds from the 30% sale of Sempra Infrastructure Partners highlight the value of this platform and allow Sempra to recycle capital back into its California and Texas utilities. Concurrently in 2021, Sempra Infrastructure continued to focus on operational excellence throughout its portfolio, including the development of two world-class LNG projects, Cameron LNG Phase 2 and Vista Pacífico LNG, which have over 10 Mtpa of combined projected capacity for customers in both the Atlantic and Pacific Basins. Additionally, in the fourth quarter, Cameron LNG Phase 1 reached facility-record LNG production levels. Sempra Infrastructure also advanced major construction of ECA LNG Phase 1, an export facility in Baja California, Mexico. ECA LNG Phase 1 is on time and on budget with first LNG production expected at the end of 2024. Sempra Infrastructure also announced the commencement of operations at Phase 2 of the Energía Sierra Juárez wind farm in Tecate, Baja California, which now provides a total of 263 MW of zero-carbon electricity through the company's cross-border power transmission line to supply the California electricity market. Sustainable Value Creation Sempra is advancing the energy transition through investments in decarbonization, diversification and digitalization – three key capabilities to help support a net-zero future. "The energy needs of customers are changing," said Martin. "That is why we have been intentional about updating our portfolio over the last several years to focus on the electrification of consumer markets, the needed expansion of energy networks and the global shift to cleaner power, all of which is generating significant growth across our utility and infrastructure businesses." Sempra aims to have net-zero emissions by 2050. In 2021, Sempra published a Sustainable Financing Framework, outlining its criteria for financing projects aligned with its environment, social and governance strategy and objectives. In combination, the Sempra family of companies and Sempra Foundation invested nearly $50 million in communities in 2021, supporting diverse and underserved communities and generating economic, environmental and social benefits for over half a million people through nearly 4,000 nonprofit organizations. Earnings Guidance Sempra is reaffirming its full-year 2022 earnings per common share (EPS) guidance range of $8.10 to $8.70 and announcing its full-year 2023 EPS guidance range of $8.60 to $9.20. Starting from the midpoint of the 2022 EPS guidance range, Sempra expects to grow long-term EPS at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 6% to 8% through 2026. "2021 was another exciting year of growth for our company and provides further validation of our focused T&D strategy with an emphasis on our utility platforms," said Trevor Mihalik, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Sempra. "Our track record of exceeding our adjusted EPS guidance four of the past five years, combined with our record $36 billion five-year capital plan, supports our positive view of the earnings power of the business going forward." Non-GAAP Financial Measures Non-GAAP financial measures include Sempra's adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS. See Table A for additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures.

SoCalGas Applauds Establishment of First Renewable Gas Standard in the United States

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas), applauds action taken by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) today to establish a renewable gas standard, an important step toward decarbonizing the gas system and reducing short-lived climate pollutant emissions. The action taken by the CPUC today makes California the first state in the country to adopt a renewable gas standard. Under this new renewable gas standard, SoCalGas will be required to replace 12.2 percent of the traditional gas it delivers to core customers with renewable gas by 2030. The standard also sets an interim goal of procuring approximately 3 percent renewable gas by 2025. Last year, SoCalGas set a goal to achieve net zero greenhouse emissions in its operations and the energy it delivers by 2045. As part of that net zero goal, SoCalGas established benchmarks including delivering 20 percent renewable natural gas (RNG) by 2030. The state's new RNG standard aligns with and will assist SoCalGas in reaching that goal. "The CPUC's decision today will help California to address the single most urgent climate issue, which is the reduction of climate super pollutants methane and black carbon," said Julia Levin, Executive Director of the Bioenergy Association of California and former Deputy Secretary for Climate Change and Energy at the California Natural Resources Agency. "Requiring utilities to procure biomethane generated from organic waste will help to reduce landfill waste, open burning of agricultural and forest waste, and wildfires, which in turn provides enormous benefits for public health and the climate." "This new standard will be critical to California's transition to net zero by implementing a framework to recycle waste, eliminate greenhouse gas emissions produced by that waste, and put it to good use as renewable natural gas," said Jawaad Malik, SoCalGas vice president of strategy and sustainability and chief environmental officer. "Our way forward will require the innovative implementation of clean fuels such as renewable natural gas and hydrogen to help make our transition to a cleaner future reliable, resilient and affordable. By creating a new mechanism for consumers to access renewable natural gas, we are one step closer to a cleaner future." The establishment of a renewable gas standard is the result of passage of Senate Bill (SB) 1440, authored by Senator Ben Hueso, chair of the state Senate Energy, Utilities and Communications Committee. SB 1440 required the CPUC to develop the standard and set goals for the procurement of renewable gas-made organic waste from wastewater treatment plants, dairies, landfills, agricultural waste, and forestry residues. A key element of the renewable gas standard is procurement of RNG produced from landfill waste, which was targeted in SB 1383. That law is aimed at reducing emissions in part through a reduction of organic waste – and the methane it produces – in landfills. The law mandates the reduction of methane emissions by 40%, hydrofluorocarbon gas emissions by 40%, and anthropogenic black carbon emissions by 50% by 2030, when compared to 2013 emissions levels. An economy-wide analysis by SoCalGas released in October found that electrification combined with clean fuels like RNG and hydrogen and carbon management offers the most affordable, resilient and technologically proven path to achieving carbon neutrality in California.

2021 Brings More Renewable Natural Gas into SoCalGas Pipelines

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced that 14 billion cubic feet of renewable natural gas (RNG) produced from organic waste was distributed via SoCalGas' pipeline system in 2021, the equivalent to removing 166,896 cars off the road annually. This is 2 billion cubic feet more than 12 billion cubic feet distributed by SoCalGas in 2020. In addition, the utility completed five RNG interconnection projects last year located throughout its service territory including the San Joaquin Valley and San Bernardino County. In total there are now nine RNG projects connected to SoCalGas' system. As part of SoCalGas' goal of achieving net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in its operations and delivery of energy by 2045, the utility plans to deliver 20% RNG to core customers by end of 2030 and continues to make significant progress towards reaching its goal. "Thanks in part to the low carbon fuel standards program, last year more than 14 billion cubic feet of RNG was transported by the SoCalGas' pipeline system, displacing more than 778,000 metric tons in carbon dioxide equivalent," said Jawaad Malik, chief environmental officer for SoCalGas. "The establishment of an RNG procurement standard for gas utilities, like the one up for vote by the CPUC could help build on the success of California's low carbon fuel standard and help bring more renewable natural gas onto our system to accelerate California's decarbonization goals." "These RNG projects are an important step toward helping San Joaquin Valley residents and our Dairy industry partners move in the right direction," said California Assemblymember Devon J. Mathis. "RNG uses existing dairy manure and natural gas infrastructure to deliver a cleaner, carbon-negative fuel to trucks that would replace diesel trucks, reducing air pollution along the San Joaquin Valley's freeway corridors while providing jobs and revenue sources for our residents." One of the projects produces RNG from diverted landfill waste, completed last May by Anaergia, Inc. (Anaergia) at its Rialto Bioenergy Facility. The facility has the capacity to convert up to 300,000 tons per year of landfill-diverted organic waste and biosolids from municipal wastewater treatment facilities into fertilizer and up to 985,000 MMBTU per year of RNG using Anaergia's advanced anaerobic digestion technology and proprietary systems. The RNG is injected into SoCalGas' pipeline. "As a global leader in anaerobic digestion and upcycling of organic waste, Anaergia has deployed more infrastructure capacity for converting food and wastewater biosolids than any other company in California," said Yaniv Scherson, chief operating officer for Anaergia. "Our Rialto Bioenergy Facility, the largest landfill-diverted organics-to-RNG facility in North America, will be central in helping California cut methane emissions from landfills under SB 1383, and stands as a model of efficiently converting organic waste into carbon-negative renewable fuel." "The completion of this RNG project in Rialto is an important step toward reaching the state's climate and environmental goals," said Mayor of Rialto, Deborah Robertson. "As RNG is a cleaner, carbon-negative fuel, this project has the potential to help reduce air pollution in the Inland Empire while creating economic opportunities for our residents." The production and use of RNG is growing in California and nationally. There are currently more than 245 operational RNG facilities in the United States, with another 105 under construction and 118 planned. Additionally, over the last five years, RNG use as a transportation fuel has increased 291 percent, displacing close to 7.5 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e).

SoCalGas Proposes to Develop United States' Largest Green Hydrogen Energy Infrastructure System to Help Decarbonize LA Basin and Accelerate California's Climate Goals

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced its proposal to develop what would be the nation's largest green hydrogen energy infrastructure system (the "Angeles Link") to deliver clean, reliable renewable energy to the Los Angeles region. As proposed, the Angeles Link would support the integration of more renewable electricity resources like solar and wind and would significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from electric generation, industrial processes, heavy-duty trucks, and other hard-to-electrify sectors of the Southern California economy. The proposed Angeles Link would also significantly decrease demand for natural gas, diesel, and other fossil fuels in the LA Basin, helping accelerate California's and the region's climate and clean air goals. "The challenges we face on climate require solutions of scale and urgency," said Scott Drury, chief executive officer of SoCalGas. "The Angeles Link is designed to meet those challenges head-on. Today in Southern California we're announcing plans for one of the world's largest clean energy infrastructure systems, to help tackle emissions for which there are no easy answers. Those emissions – from power plants, industry, and heavy-duty trucks - very much 'count' and must be significantly reduced to reach our and the State's climate goals." As the nation's largest manufacturing hub, the Los Angeles Basin is home to many potential green hydrogen users. As proposed, Angeles Link's green hydrogen could: Displace up to 3 million gallons of diesel fuel per day by replacing diesel powered heavy-duty trucks with hydrogen fuel cell trucks Eliminate up to nearly 25,000 tons of smog forming NOx per year Provide the clean fuel to convert up to four natural gas power plants to green hydrogen As contemplated, the Angeles Link would deliver green hydrogen in an amount equivalent to almost 25 percent of the natural gas SoCalGas delivers today. Building the system to provide a clean alternative fuel could, over time and combined with other future clean energy projects, reduce natural gas demand served by the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility, facilitating its ultimate retirement while continuing to provide reliable and affordable energy to the region.  " California policymakers, thought-leaders, business, academic, labor, and environmental communities all agree green hydrogen is vital to achieving our climate and clean air goals," Drury continued. "With relationships to thousands of industrial end users, a regulatory framework that promotes a transparent and robust stakeholder process serving the public interest, and an extraordinary workforce to do the job safely, SoCalGas is well positioned to work with California to capitalize on this pioneering opportunity to build what would be America's largest green hydrogen hub. The Angeles Link project, if approved and completed, is poised to extend our state's position as a leader on clean energy well into the future while helping to attract billions of dollars in new investment and maintaining and creating thousands of skilled jobs." "If we are going to be successful in tackling the climate emergency, we need every company, every worker and every community on the front lines," Senate Majority Leader Emeritus Bob Hertzberg (D- Van Nuys) said. "This effort to establish a green hydrogen energy system in the Los Angeles basin is a creative and inventive step forward in that fight. It will not only dramatically reduce carbon emissions, it will create good-paying jobs." "We are encouraged that SoCalGas is embarking on a major project that will help make green hydrogen a reality here in Los Angeles," said Marty Adams, Chief Engineer and General Manager of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). "Developing a source of safe, affordable green hydrogen is key to achieving our clean energy future by 2035, while ensuring the reliability we all need and depend on. Projects like the proposed Angeles Link are an important step forward." "As President of the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor, my priority is creating good union jobs while also seeking solutions that protect workers and their families when they return from a hard day's work," Ron Herrera, president of the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO said. "The thought of creating a massive clean, green energy hub in Los Angeles, growing union jobs, and preserving the thousands of middle-class jobs for refinery, utility, and electrical workers is exactly the sort of out-of-the-box thinking that this project presents. This is infrastructure done right." "A dedicated green hydrogen system is essential to meeting Los Angeles County's goal of transitioning to a carbon free energy system," said Supervisor Kathryn Barger, who represents Los Angeles County's Fifth District. "By decarbonizing hard to electrify industries, Angeles Link will decrease demand for fossil-based natural gas and increase the amount of reliable clean energy in the region. This will help L.A. County continue to grow sustainably without increasing greenhouse gas emissions and jeopardizing grid reliability." "Utility Workers Union of America Local 132 is excited to support Angeles Link. It is precisely the type of future forward energy thinking our members have long advocated for – innovation, union job creation and maintaining reliable, as well as affordable, infrastructure," said Eric Hofmann, president of Utility Workers Union of America Local 132. "This is the way to build back the middle class in California." "Infrastructure projects like Angeles Link are critical to realizing the green hydrogen vision we developed in HyDeal LA because it will enable low delivered cost for large-scale users across multiple sectors," said Janice Lin, the founder and President of the Green Hydrogen Coalition. "Continuing a California tradition of leading on climate, Angeles Link will help position the US among global leaders in green hydrogen development. The Green Hydrogen Coalition appreciates SoCalGas' leadership in facilitating access to high volume, low cost green hydrogen to accelerate California's economy-wide clean energy transition." " Angeles Link is the first real proposal I've seen that can substantially decrease the need for natural gas in the city of Los Angeles without compromising grid reliability," John Lee, Los Angeles City Councilmember, District 12 said. "I support the goals of this proposal because it will help us get one step closer to achieving the City's goal of 100% clean energy by 2035 without compromising reliability and hurting jobs." "Today's Angeles Link announcement is exactly the business innovation that the Los Angeles region needs to remain competitive and affordable today and well into the future" added Tracy Hernandez, Founding CEO of the Los Angeles County Business Federation (BizFed). "A thriving Southern California is essential for California to succeed. Building out a clean energy infrastructure is a win-win for local businesses, our state and, ultimately, the country." "We are on the precipice of huge growth in the production, distribution, and use of green hydrogen to enable high renewable use and zero emissions in all sectors of the economy," said Jack Brouwer, Director the National Fuel Cell Research Center at the University of California, Irvine. "For nearly a decade, SoCalGas has worked together with us and others to make the hydrogen economy a reality, including helping us build the very first power-to-gas-to-power system in the country right here on the UCI campus. The Angeles Link is a great example of what can be done when government, industry, and academia work together toward a common purpose." "Achieving carbon neutrality requires an integrated clean fuels network to power transportation and industries that are difficult to electrify," said Lew Fulton, Director of the Sustainable Transportation Energy Pathways Program, for the Institute for Transportation Studies at University of California Davis. "This project will help develop a green hydrogen network that can deliver this energy to our nation's largest transportation and manufacturing centers while enabling the widespread production of low-carbon, renewable electricity." Green Hydrogen Is Key to Reaching Net Zero Emissions by 2045 Renewable green hydrogen has the potential to deliver significant emissions reductions in industries and sectors where renewable electricity alone cannot. Research studies conducted by  Energy and Environmental Economics, Inc. ("E3") and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory ( NREL LA100) highlight the need for clean fuels like green hydrogen to achieve Los Angeles' LA100 net zero goals and California's mid-century climate goals. Global investments in green hydrogen are helping to reduce its cost. Locally, HyDeal Los Angeles, an initiative of the Green Hydrogen Coalition, a non-profit organization supported by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP), SoCalGas, Mitsubishi Power, and others aims to make green hydrogen cost-competitive with traditional fuels – and achieve at-scale green hydrogen procurement at $1.50/kilogram in the LA Basin by 2030.  The proposed Angeles Link is key to helping the region achieve its goals, and it is an extension of SoCalGas' role as an industry leader in hydrogen. In 2015, the company launched the first power-to-gas hydrogen demonstration project in the U.S. In 2021 Fast Company magazine chose SoCalGas' H2 Hydrogen Home microgrid demonstration as one of its World-Changing Ideas in North America. Today SoCalGas has 10 hydrogen pilot projects in motion and is testing moving hydrogen through existing natural gas infrastructure. Preliminary Actions   To promote the public's interest in transparency and accountability, SoCalGas today is filing an application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) requesting approval to track costs related to development of the Angeles Link. The company proposes a phased approach with a robust stakeholder process each step of the way. The application, available here includes descriptions of each phase, including development of a detailed project application as part of Phase 3. With this application submission the proposed Angeles Link is in its initial stage of development, and subsequent stages will require further regulatory review and discretionary approvals, among other things.

Green hydrogen leadership opportunity

According to a report by the California Energy Commission, California’s power demand could double in the next quarter century, requiring an even stronger, integrated gas and electric energy system. Sempra believes combining the strengths of clean electrons from solar, wind and hydro with the strengths of clean molecules like hydrogen and renewable natural gas, can deliver a more reliable and affordable clean energy future. Today, Sempra subsidiary Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) proposed what would be the largest green hydrogen energy infrastructure system in the United States, known as The Angeles Link. The Angeles Link would be comprised of a new hydrogen-ready, interstate pipeline system capable of delivering green hydrogen into the Los Angeles basin. In doing so, The Angeles Link could drive deep decarbonization of dispatchable electric generation, hard-to-electrify industries and heavy-duty transportation in Los Angeles County, home to an estimated 10 million people and one of the largest industrial hubs in the nation. The proposed new hydrogen system has the potential to significantly decrease demand for natural gas and diesel fuels in the region, helping accelerate California’s climate and clean air goals. Sempra California committed to innovation “California is known for its leadership in technology and innovation and taking bold action to help solve some of society’s biggest challenges, so it is fitting that we are at the frontier of a potential new integrated energy system,” said Kevin Sagara, group president of Sempra. “Sempra’s California utilities are focused on innovation and building new integrated energy networks that provide customers with cleaner forms of electricity and industrial customers with a suite of lower-carbon tools to aid emissions reduction.” Sempra has been intentional about updating its portfolio over the last several years to focus on the electrification of consumer markets, the expansion of energy networks and the global shift to cleaner power. A clean fuels network leveraging new and existing infrastructure can support customer choice as regions work to decarbonize and develop the means to scale up electrification. “The needs of energy customers are changing,” said Sagara. “A dedicated hydrogen-ready pipeline system would have the potential to integrate more renewables on the electric grid, provide valuable storage and enhance reliability.” Hydrogen’s role in a net-zero future Green hydrogen has the potential to deliver significant emissions reductions in industries and sectors where renewable electricity alone cannot, such as certain industrial processes, building heating and transport. As the industrial sector transitions from carbon-based fuels like coal, natural gas and oil, to cleaner fuels, like renewable natural gas and hydrogen, both the electric grid and natural gas grid must become even more robust. In its 2021 World Economic Outlook net-zero energy scenario, the International Energy Agency envisions that in 2050 more than 50% of global gas production will be used to produce low-carbon hydrogen. Dedicated pipeline and storage infrastructure, among other things, is needed to deliver this promising fuel of the future. IEA calls for governments to “ensure deployment of the infrastructure required to support longer term increases in low-carbon hydrogen supply and demand, including hydrogen pipelines, port facilities and storage.” As the owner of one of the largest energy networks in North America, Sempra is working to expand grids and enable flexibility so zero-carbon electrons and molecules can work in tandem to meet our customers’ changing energy needs. The proposed Angeles Link is in its initial stage of development, and subsequent stages will require regulatory review and discretionary approvals, among other things.

Today, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) authorized San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) to build three new energy storage facilities totaling 161MW/644MWh in order to provide the state with greater capacity to meet high energy demand on summer days and at night after solar power dissipates. Altogether, these new projects will be able to provide enough capacity to meet the energy needs of more than 100,000 homes for up to four hours. Like other energy storage projects owned and operated by SDG&E, these new facilities will be connected to the state energy market, meaning the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) will be able to dispatch them any time they are needed to balance demand and supply on the grid statewide. “Investing in advanced technologies like energy storage is critical to advancing our state and region’s aggressive climate goals, including getting to net zero greenhouse gas emissions, with the added benefit of making the energy grid more resilient,” SDG&E Vice President of Energy Innovation Miguel Romero said. “Project by project, step by step, we are making progress toward a cleaner, safer and more reliable energy future.” Battery storage works by capturing renewable resources like wind and solar when they are abundant during the day, then sending that energy back to the grid when it is needed. The new facilities, which are slated to be completed in late 2022/early 2023, stemmed from the Emergency Reliability rulemaking proceeding under which the CPUC directed utilities to contract for additional capacity to bolster the grid. The projects are the latest of a series of energy storage investments SDG&E has been making. The company completed the Top Gun Energy Storage, a 30MW/120MWh lithium-ion battery system, last June. By March, SDG&E plans to begin commercial operation of another lithium-ion battery storage facility in Kearny Mesa, which will provide 20MW/80MWh. A third lithium-ion storage facility, 40MW/160MWh, is under construction in Fallbrook. By year end 2022, SDG&E expects to have 145MW of SDG&E-owned storage connected to the regional grid (the equivalent needed to serve about 94,000 homes for four hours).

SoCalGas, OPAL Fuels, and Young's Commercial Transfer Showcase Conversion of Fleet to Renewable Natural Gas at World Ag Expo

TULARE, Calif., Feb. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas), Young's Commercial Transfer (YCT), one of the largest agricultural trucking companies in the United States, and OPAL Fuels, a leading producer and distributor of renewable natural gas (RNG), are showcasing YCT's commitment to help decarbonize California by transitioning its fleet of heavy-duty trucks to operate on RNG. These ultra, low-emissions trucks are fueled at stations built, owned and operated by OPAL Fuels across the San Joaquin Valley. The RNG will be delivered via SoCalGas' pipeline network. YCT currently has 80 natural gas trucks and plans to increase that to 110 by the end of March. Additionally, YCT hopes to convert 75 percent of its fleet to RNG by the end of 2023. The trucks will be equipped with Cummins Westport 12-liter engines and automatic transmission and have a driving range of up to 600 miles. RNG is not a fossil fuel, but a lower-carbon fuel, and is produced by capturing methane emissions from organic waste, including landfill sites and dairy farms. When used in transportation end-uses in place of diesel fuel, RNG can provide significant annual operating cost savings (with LCFS and RIN credits) and help reduce the carbon footprint of heavy-duty fleets. In California, RNG used as transportation fuel has increased 177 percent over the last five years and in 2020 alone 1.83 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) was displaced as reported by the Coalition for Renewable Natural Gas. Additional RNG refueling stations that use SoCalGas' pipeline network have come online in the central San Joaquin Valley within the last 18 months. The development of these stations has provided critical alternatives in the refueling network along the heavily traveled Highway 99. "As a Kern County Supervisor and member of the Valley Air Board, I get the chance to study and make decisions regarding energy and air pollution priorities," said David Couch. "I have always advocated for the 'all of the above' approach that utilizes gas and incorporates renewables into a healthy and efficient energy and air quality portfolio. As such, natural gas is an important part of our transportation system for Ag and needs to be part of the solution." "Being able to represent the AG show as a Tulare County Supervisor and member of the Valley Air Board, I see firsthand how RNG can help reduce emissions," said Amy Shuklian. "Improving public health and creating jobs are also positive outcomes." In California, transportation accounts for more than 41 percent of greenhouse gas emissions and 80 percent of smog-forming pollution in the state, with heavy-duty trucks among the largest polluters, according to California Air Resources Board data. "RNG is rapidly becoming mainstream in the San Joaquin Valley, and it's being adopted by organizations of all sizes," said Gillian Wright, senior vice president and chief customer officer at SoCalGas. " California companies like YCT working towards carbon neutrality will help accelerate the state's climate goals." "Our trucks run over 18 million miles every year, which makes us uniquely positioned to affect the air quality problem in California," said Scott Daniel, president of YCT. "As the first link in the CA food chain, we look forward to leading our AG Partners into a new sustainable future." "We are proud to help enable YCT's effort to decarbonize their fleet while simultaneously driving cost savings through adoption of ultra-low carbon renewable natural gas," said Scott Edelbach, executive vice president of sustainable transportation fuels at OPAL Fuels. "While the U.S. transportation sector is one of the largest emitters of CO2, RNG is proof that there does not have to be a tradeoff between doing what's best for your business and doing what's best for the planet." As part of its efforts to reach its goal of net zero emissions by 2045, SoCalGas is focused on solutions to help reduce emissions in hard-to-abate sectors, including heavy duty transportation. Clean fuels such as RNG and hydrogen are important components of any solution to decarbonize hard-to-electrify parts of the California economy. A new economy-wide technical analysis, released by SoCalGas, describes how repurposing existing gas infrastructure to deliver clean fuels, like RNG, and manage carbon can help the state reach carbon neutrality more affordably and with less risk than other pathways. SoCalGas has worked with fleet owners to secure millions of dollars in incentive funding for the replacement of diesel trucks with cleaner, near-zero emissions natural gas trucks. Since 2014, the utility has helped truckers and trucking companies replace more than 550 diesel trucks with cleaner natural gas trucks. Last year SoCalGas received the 2021 NGV Achievement Award in the Utility Leadership category. The award, presented by NGVAmerica, recognized SoCalGas' outstanding contributions to the advancement of natural gas as a transportation fuel.

Rob Borthwick Q&A: doing the right thing

Robert Borthwick is deputy general counsel for Sempra. In this role, Borthwick leads the litigation, employment law, law department operations and compliance functions. Borthwick has served in various leadership roles since joining Sempra in 2003. From 2018 to 2019, he was general manager of Sempra Renewables, leading all aspects of Sempra’s renewable energy business segment, including operations, finance and commercial development, as well as supporting the sale of its U.S. wind and solar assets. He previously served as general counsel of Sempra Renewables and Sempra LNG, and also led the environmental, health and safety, regulatory, human resources and external affairs groups supporting both companies. Learn more about Rob Borthwick in this Q&A: Walk us through your career. How did you get to where you are today? I have worked for all three branches of government, so I suppose at some point I am destined to become a civics teacher. After college I worked on Capitol Hill, then after law school became a law clerk for a federal judge in Los Angeles and then was a federal prosecutor. When you add in practicing at a law firm and my role here at Sempra, I’ve had the opportunity to explore the legal field from all angles. It’s given me great perspective and appreciation for the complexity of our legal systems in this country. What are your daily responsibilities as Deputy General Counsel for Sempra? Since the pandemic began, Erbin Keith and I have led the Sempra law department. We collaborate with the general counsels of each of our operating companies and I personally work with four teams at the parent company— the litigation group, the labor and employment group, the compliance group and the legal operations group. I talk a lot with the leaders of each of those teams to make sure they have everything they need to be effective and help the company address issues ranging from COVID-19 regulation compliance to complex litigation. By ensuring these issues are managed appropriately, the rest of the company can then focus on carrying out our important work to advance the energy transition and a better future for all. In the legal field, doing the right thing is particularly important. Can you talk a bit about what this Sempra value means to you? I love helping out with new employee orientations and we go through the three Sempra values — do the right thing, champion people and shape the future — and the one I always emphasize is do the right thing. All of the values are very important but for me, doing the right thing is critical. You can do lots of things right but if you have a brief ethical lapse or compliance problem, you can wipe out a lot of really good work. Making sure we instill in our employees the importance of doing the right thing is critical to Sempra as we carry out our work to deliver safe, reliable, affordable and increasingly cleaner energy to customers. We can’t cut corners. I help provide an annual compliance presentation to the Sempra board who is also very interested and engaged in both ethics and compliance. One of the reasons I’ve enjoyed working here as long as I have is because of how our leadership and employees demonstrate such a firm commitment to doing the right thing. You’re actively involved with Serving Seniors, serving as chairman of the organization’s board of directors. What drew you to that organization and what other volunteer work do you carry out? Serving Seniors is an organization that is committed to serving meals and providing housing to seniors who need a helping hand. I first got to know Serving Seniors through my children serving meals at the organization's wellness center in downtown San Diego and was drawn to the mission of helping make sure the needs of one of the most vulnerable segments of our society are being met. I’ve been on the board, which has a long history of Sempra leadership, for four years. I’ve also been a court appointed special advocate (CASA) in the foster care system for around nine years. It's part of a nationwide program where you become an advocate for a child in the foster care system. Typically, these kids will have a lawyer or social worker who has dozens of other clients. With the CASA program, you become the sole advocate for the child. I meet with my foster child regularly and this has been a particularly rewarding experience for me.
