Good morning.

(Here’s the sign-up, if you don’t already get California Today by email.)

It’s been quite a year for Pacific Gas & Electric, the state’s largest utility — and not in a good way.

You probably know the broad contours: In January, PG&E filed for bankruptcy protection as it faced billions of dollars of liability for its role in starting devastating wildfires.

And in the midst of this year’s fire season, the utility caused chaos when it shut off power to millions of people in an effort, it said, to prevent more blazes from sparking.

There’s still a lot of complicated maneuvering ahead, though. So I asked my colleague Ivan Penn, who’s been covering it all, to give us this update:

Even after reaching a $13.5 billion settlement with wildfire victims, Pacific Gas & Electric faces a largely uncertain future, as demands to overhaul the utility continue to grow.
