1 PG&E Quantitative Analysis Policy Recommendation Notes – key outcomes: Classification June 4 rd, 2020 Maria Sanz-Moreno

Inform Introduction 1. Feedback Decision Purpose: • 2. X Propose a systemic approach to classify policy recommendations by level of agreement Current Challenges: 1. Limited time and resources. Large group of stakeholders. 2. Not clearly defined methodology and terminology: • • “Strong agreement” currently based on “Short term” and “above-median” • Timeframe does not represent consensus • “Above-median” does not necessarily correspond to strong agreement Loss of information by not analyzing individual scores of each policy recommendation 2

Inform PG&E – Classification of policy recommendations Feedback X Decision Proposal: • Classify policy recommendation on a recommendation by recommendation bases • Leverage VGI Report’s existing materials as much as possible Analysis framework: 1. Focus on areas of agreement/disagreement Survey Question # 1 2. Level of agreement/disagreement for all time periods (short-, mid- and long-term) 3. Analysis of the scores of each individual policy recommendations (scores 1 through 5) • 4. No averages, no numbers above the median criteria Excludes “already underway” policy recommendation policies Purple 3

Green: Agreements Strong agreement: Over 50% of responses agree, less than 5 strongly disagree ( ~20%) Red: Disagreement: Strong disagreement: Over 50% of responses disagree, less than 5 strongly agree ( ~20%) Blue: Polarized agreement Mostly equal number of neutral, agree and disagree responses Black: Neutral Mostly Neutral Over 50% of responses are neutral Purple – Already underway = 17 policy recommendations Count Analysis Classification Criteria Policy recommendations (excluding the 17 “already underway” policy recommendations) 55 3 24 5 2 Polarized Agreement Neutral Disagreement Opinions Strong agreement Agreement Neutral ≤ 50% Agreement > Disagreement Strong Disagreement ≤ 20% Agreement > Neutral Agreements ≥ 50% Agreement < 50% Majority neutral Neutral > Agreement Neutral >Disagreement 3 Equal Disagreement Strong disagreement Disagree > 25% Disagreement > Agreement Neutral ≤ 50% Agreements > 25% Neutral ≤ 33% Strg.

Inform PG&E VGI SME Team - Recap X Feedback Decision • As reference – Current description in the report: Detailed below are summaries of the 109 policy actions, presented and sorted by category, by time-frame, and by the level of agreement with a recommendation expressed by participants through the policy recommendations survey (question Q 1 score). Along with these summaries are participant comments on the recommendations from the policy survey, and elaboration of which “above-median” (high value/favorable) use cases are supported by which recommendations. These notes and elaborations are derived from the information in Annexes 10, 11, and 12 6
