This approval by the KPSC allows KPCo to continue taking a 50% share of energy and capacity from the Mitchell Plant to serve KPCo customers beyond December 31, 2028. See “Mitchell Plant Filing for Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity” section below for additional information. In February 2026, WPCo requested that the WVPSC grant any additional authorizations necessary to enable WPCo to reflect the holdings and impact of the December 2025 KPSC order or make a determination that no such authorizations are required. WPCo forecasted CCR and ELG amounts related to the Mitchell Plant are subject to change pending a ruling from the WVPSC on WPCo’s February 2026 filing.
