Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

OGE Energy is a holding company whose primary investment provides electricity in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. OGE Energy's electric company operations are conducted through OG&E, which generates, transmits, distributes and sells electric energy in Oklahoma and western Arkansas and are reported through OGE Energy's electric company business segment. OG&E's rates are subject to regulation by the OCC, the APSC and the FERC. OG&E was incorporated in 1902 under the laws of the Oklahoma Territory and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of OGE Energy. OG&E is the largest electric company in Oklahoma, and its franchised service territory includes Fort Smith, Arkansas and the surrounding communities. OG&E sold its retail natural gas business in 1928 and is no longer engaged in the natural gas distribution business.

The accounts of OGE Energy and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including OG&E, are included in OGE Energy's condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in such consolidation.

During 2022, OGE Energy accounted for its investment in Energy Transfer as an investment in equity securities, as further discussed below, and reported the Energy Transfer investment, along with legacy Enable seconded employee pension and postretirement costs, through OGE Energy's natural gas midstream operations segment. As of the end of September 2022, OGE Energy had sold all of its Energy Transfer limited partner units. Therefore, beginning in 2023, OGE Energy no longer has a natural gas operations reporting segment. Prior to OGE Energy's sale of all Energy Transfer limited partner units, the investment in Energy Transfer's equity securities was held through wholly-owned subsidiaries and ultimately OGE Holdings.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Registrants, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Registrants believe that the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial position of the Registrants at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the results of the Registrants' operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and the Registrants' cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature except as otherwise disclosed. Management also has evaluated the impact of events occurring after March 31, 2023 up to the date of

issuance of these condensed financial statements, and these statements contain all necessary adjustments and disclosures resulting from that evaluation.

Due to seasonal fluctuations and other factors, the Registrants' operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future period. The condensed financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Registrants' 2022 Form 10-K.

Accounting Records

The accounting records of OG&E are maintained in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts prescribed by the FERC and adopted by the OCC and the APSC. Additionally, OG&E, as a regulated utility, is subject to accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities, which provide that certain incurred costs that would otherwise be charged to expense can be deferred as regulatory assets, based on the expected recovery from customers in future rates. Likewise, certain actual or anticipated credits that would otherwise reduce expense can be deferred as regulatory liabilities, based on the expected flowback to customers in future rates. Management's expected recovery of deferred costs and flowback of deferred credits generally results from specific decisions by regulators granting such ratemaking treatment.

OG&E records certain incurred costs and obligations as regulatory assets or liabilities if, based on regulatory orders or other available evidence, it is probable that the costs or obligations will be included in amounts allowable for recovery or refund in future rates.

The following table presents a summary of OG&E's regulatory assets and liabilities.

(B)

Management continuously monitors the future recoverability of regulatory assets. When in management's judgment future recovery becomes impaired, the amount of the regulatory asset is adjusted, as appropriate. If OG&E were required to discontinue the application of accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities for some or all of its operations, it could result in writing off the related regulatory assets or liabilities, which could have significant financial effects.

Customer balances are generally written off if not collected within six months after the final billing date. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for OG&E is generally calculated by multiplying the last six months of electric revenue by the provision rate, which is based on a 12-month historical average of actual balances written off and is adjusted for current conditions and supportable forecasts as necessary. To the extent the historical collection rates, when incorporating forecasted conditions, are not representative of future collections, there could be an effect on the amount of uncollectible expense recognized. Also, a portion of the uncollectible provision related to fuel within the Oklahoma jurisdiction is being recovered through the fuel adjustment clause. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is a reduction to Accounts Receivable in the condensed balance sheets and is included in Other Operation and Maintenance Expense in the condensed statements of income.

New business customers are required to provide a security deposit in the form of cash, bond or irrevocable letter of credit that is refunded when the account is closed. New residential customers whose outside credit scores indicate an elevated risk are required to provide a security deposit that is refunded based on customer protection rules defined by the OCC and the APSC. The payment

behavior of all existing customers is continuously monitored, and, if the payment behavior indicates sufficient risk within the meaning of the applicable utility regulation, customers will be required to provide a security deposit.

Related Party Transactions

OGE Energy charges operating costs to OG&E based on several factors, and operating costs directly related to OG&E are assigned as such. Operating costs incurred for the benefit of OG&E are allocated either as overhead based primarily on labor costs or using the "Distrigas" method, which is a three-factor formula that uses an equal weighting of payroll, net operating revenues and gross property, plant and equipment. OGE Energy adopted this method as a result of a recommendation by the OCC Staff and believes this method provides a reasonable basis for allocating common expenses.

OGE Energy charged operating costs to OG&E of $37.6 million and $32.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]

Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50)." The amendments in this update require that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose in each annual reporting period: (i) the key terms of the program, including a description of the payment terms and assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees provided for the committed payment to the finance provider and (ii) the amount outstanding that remains unpaid by the buyer as of year-end, a description of where those obligations are presented in the balance sheet and a rollforward of those obligations during the annual period. The standard was effective January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective January 1, 2024. The Registrants have adopted this standard, which did not result in a material impact on their financial statements and related disclosures.

The Registrants believe that other recently adopted and recently issued accounting standards that are not yet effective do not appear to have a material impact on the Registrants' financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for change in accounting principle. Includes, but is not limited to, nature, reason, and method of adopting amendment to accounting standards or other change in accounting principle.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

The classification of the Registrants' fair value measurements requires judgment regarding the degree to which market data is observable or corroborated by observable market data. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value based on observable and unobservable data. The hierarchy categorizes the inputs into three levels, with the highest priority given to quoted prices in active markets for identical unrestricted assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority given to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels defined in the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical unrestricted assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable at the reporting date for the asset or liability for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3 inputs are prices or valuation techniques for the asset or liability that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).

The Registrants had no financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The following table presents the carrying amount and fair value of the Registrants' financial instruments at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, as well as the classification level within the fair value hierarchy.

Income Taxes

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2023

Income Taxes [Abstract]

Income Taxes

OGE Energy files consolidated income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. OG&E is a part of the consolidated income tax return of OGE Energy. With few exceptions, the Registrants are no longer subject to U.S. federal tax or state and local examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2019. Income taxes are generally allocated to each company in the affiliated group, including OG&E, based on its stand-alone taxable income or loss. Federal investment tax credits previously claimed on electric utility property have been deferred and will be amortized to income over the life of the related property. Oklahoma investment state tax credits are also earned on investments at electric generating facilities which further reduce OG&E's effective tax rate.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Equity [Abstract]

Common Equity

Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan

OGE Energy issued no new shares of common stock under its Automatic Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to OGE Energy by the weighted-average number of OGE Energy's common shares outstanding during the period. In the calculation of diluted earnings per share, weighted-average shares outstanding are increased for additional shares that would be outstanding if potentially dilutive securities were converted to common stock. Potentially dilutive securities for OGE Energy consist of performance units and restricted stock units. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for OGE Energy.

Long-Term Debt

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2023

Long-Term Debt, Unclassified [Abstract]

Long-Term Debt

At March 31, 2023, the Registrants were in compliance with all of their debt agreements.

In 2021, OGE Energy issued $500.0 million of 0.703 percent senior notes, and OG&E issued $500.0 million of 0.553 percent senior notes. The Registrants intend to repay each of the $500.0 million senior notes due May 26, 2023.

In April 2023, OG&E issued $350.0 million of 5.60 percent Senior Notes due April 1, 2053. In January 2023, OG&E issued $450.0 million of 5.40 percent Senior Notes due January 15, 2033. The proceeds from these issuances were added to OG&E's general funds to be used for general corporate purposes, including to help fund the repayment of its $500.0 million of 0.553 percent Senior Notes due May 26, 2023 and the funding of its capital investment program and working capital needs.

OGE Energy has a $100.0 million floating rate unsecured three-year credit agreement, of which $50.0 million is considered a revolving loan and $50.0 million is considered a term loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the interest rate for the $50.0 million drawn on the term loan under this credit agreement ranged from 5.375 percent to 5.875 percent.

OG&E Industrial Authority Bonds

OG&E has tax-exempt pollution control bonds with optional redemption provisions that allow the holders to request repayment of the bonds on any business day. The following table presents information about these bonds, which can be tendered at the option of the holder during the next 12 months.


Series			Date Due	Amount
				(In millions)
1.85%	-	4.45%	Garfield Industrial Authority, January 1, 2025	$	47.0
1.85%	-	4.30%	Muskogee Industrial Authority, January 1, 2025		32.4
1.85%	-	4.45%	Muskogee Industrial Authority, June 1, 2027		56.0
Total (redeemable during next 12 months)				$	135.4

All of these bonds are subject to an optional tender at the request of the holders, at 100 percent of the principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase. The bond holders, on any business day, can request repayment of the bond by delivering an irrevocable notice to the tender agent stating the principal amount of the bond, payment instructions for the purchase price and the business day the bond is to be purchased. The repayment option may only be exercised by the holder of a bond for the principal amount. When a tender notice has been received by the trustee, a third-party remarketing agent for the bonds will attempt to remarket any bonds tendered for purchase. This process occurs once per week. Since the original issuance of these series of bonds in 1995 and 1997, the remarketing agent has successfully remarketed all tendered bonds. If the remarketing agent is unable to remarket any such bonds, OG&E is obligated to repurchase such unremarketed bonds. As OG&E has both the intent and ability to

refinance the bonds on a long-term basis and such ability is supported by an ability to consummate the refinancing, the bonds are classified as Long-Term Debt in the condensed balance sheets. OG&E believes that it has sufficient liquidity to meet these obligations.

Short-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

Short-Term Debt [Abstract]

Short-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

The Registrants borrow on a short-term basis, as necessary, by the issuance of commercial paper and by borrowings under their revolving credit agreements. OGE Energy also borrows under term credit agreements maturing in one year or less, as necessary. The Registrants had no short-term debt at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The following table presents information regarding the Registrants' revolving credit agreements at March 31, 2023.


Entity	Aggregate Commitment		Amount Outstanding (A)		Weighted-Average Interest Rate				Expiration

(A)

Includes direct borrowings under the revolving credit agreements, commercial paper borrowings and letters of credit at March 31, 2023.

(B)

This bank facility is available to back up OGE Energy's commercial paper borrowings and to provide revolving credit borrowings. This bank facility can also be used as a letter of credit facility.

(C)

OGE Energy has a $100.0 million floating rate unsecured three-year credit agreement, of which $50.0 million is considered a revolving loan and $50.0 million is considered a term loan.

(D)

This bank facility is available to back up OG&E's commercial paper borrowings and to provide revolving credit borrowings. This bank facility can also be used as a letter of credit facility.

(E)

OG&E has an intercompany borrowing agreement with OGE Energy whereby OG&E has access to up to $450.0 million of OGE Energy's revolving credit amount. This agreement has a termination date of December 17, 2027. At March 31, 2023, there were no intercompany borrowings under this agreement.

(F)

Represents the weighted-average interest rate for the outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreements, commercial paper borrowings and letters of credit.

(G)

In December 2022, the Registrants each entered into an amendment to their credit facility that extended the term of each credit facility for one year, until December 2027. Further, each credit facility amendment gave each of the Registrants the option of extending such commitments for up to two additional one-year periods.

The Registrants' ability to access the commercial paper market could be adversely impacted by a credit ratings downgrade or major market disruptions. Pricing grids associated with the Registrants' credit facilities could cause annual fees and borrowing rates to increase if an adverse rating impact occurs. The impact of any future downgrade could include an increase in the costs of the Registrants' short-term borrowings, but a reduction in the Registrants' credit ratings would not result in any defaults or accelerations. Any future downgrade could also lead to higher long-term borrowing costs and, if below investment grade, would require the Registrants to post collateral or letters of credit.

OG&E must obtain regulatory approval from the FERC in order to borrow on a short-term basis. OG&E has the necessary regulatory approvals to incur up to $1.0 billion in short-term borrowings at any one time for a two-year period beginning January 1, 2023 and ending December 31, 2024.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Disclosure [Text Block]

Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefit Plans

In accordance with ASC Topic 715, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits," a one-time settlement charge is required to be recorded by an organization when lump sum payments or other settlements that relieve the organization from the responsibility for the pension benefit obligation during the plan year exceed the service cost and interest cost components of the organization's net periodic pension cost. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Registrants experienced an increase in the amount of lump sum payments paid to employees upon retirement, which resulted in the Registrants recording pension plan settlement charges as presented in the Pension Plan net periodic benefit cost tables below. The pension settlement charges did not require a cash outlay by the Registrants

and did not increase total pension expense over time, as the charges were an acceleration of costs that otherwise would be recognized as pension expense in future periods.

Net Periodic Benefit Cost

The following tables present the net periodic benefit cost components, before consideration of capitalized amounts, of OGE Energy's Pension Plan, Restoration of Retirement Income Plan and postretirement benefit plans that are included in the condensed financial statements. Service cost is presented within Other Operation and Maintenance Expense, and the remaining net periodic benefit cost components as listed in the following tables are presented within Other Net Periodic Benefit Income (Expense) in the statements of income. OG&E recovers specific amounts of pension and postretirement medical costs in rates approved in its Oklahoma rate reviews. In accordance with approved orders, OG&E defers the difference between actual pension and postretirement medical expenses and the amount approved in its last Oklahoma rate review as a regulatory asset or regulatory liability. These amounts have been recorded in the Pension tracker in the regulatory assets and liabilities table in Note 1 and within Other Net Periodic Benefit Income (Expense) in the statements of income.

Report of Business Segments

OGE Energy reports its operations primarily through a single segment, captioned "electric company," which is engaged in the generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electric energy. The "other operations" caption primarily includes the operations of the holding company and other energy-related investments. Intersegment revenues are recorded at prices comparable to those of unaffiliated customers and are affected by regulatory considerations. During 2022, OGE Energy held an investment in Energy Transfer's equity securities and reported the investment's activity, as well as Enable legacy pension and postretirement costs, through the natural gas midstream operations segment. As of the end of September 2022, OGE Energy had sold all of Energy Transfer's limited partner units; therefore, beginning in 2023, OGE Energy no longer has a natural gas midstream operations segment. The following tables present the results of OGE Energy's business segments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

12.

Commitments and Contingencies

Except as set forth below, in Note 13 and under "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Item 2 of Part I and in Item 1 of Part II of this Form 10-Q, the circumstances set forth in Notes 13 and 14 to the financial statements included in the Registrants' 2022 Form 10-K appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of the Registrants' material commitments and contingent liabilities.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

The activities of OG&E are subject to numerous stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and regulations governing environmental protection. These laws and regulations can change, restrict or otherwise impact the Registrants' business activities in many ways, including the handling or disposal of waste material, planning for future construction activities to avoid or mitigate harm to threatened or endangered species and requiring the installation and operation of emissions or pollution control equipment. Failure

to comply with these laws and regulations could result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements and the issuance of orders enjoining future operations. Management believes that all of OG&E's operations are in substantial compliance with current federal, state and local environmental standards.

Environmental regulation can increase the cost of planning, design, initial installation and operation of OG&E's facilities. Management continues to evaluate its compliance with existing and proposed environmental legislation and regulations and implement appropriate environmental programs in a competitive market.

Other

In the normal course of business, the Registrants are confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits or claims made by third parties, including governmental agencies. When appropriate, management consults with legal counsel and other experts to assess the claim. If, in management's opinion, the Registrants have incurred a probable loss as set forth by GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in the condensed financial statements. At the present time, based on currently available information, the Registrants believe that any reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued amounts arising out of pending or threatened lawsuits or claims would not be quantitatively material to their condensed financial statements and would not have a material adverse effect on their financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Rate Matters and Regulation

Except as set forth below, the circumstances set forth in Note 14 to the financial statements included in the Registrants' 2022 Form 10-K appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of the Registrants' regulatory matters.

Completed Regulatory Matters

APSC Proceedings

Arkansas 2022 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In October 2022, OG&E filed its fifth evaluation report under its Formula Rate Plan, and on February 1, 2023, OG&E and the APSC Staff filed a non-unanimous joint settlement agreement, which included an annual electric revenue increase of $9.6 million. The Arkansas Attorney General and the Arkansas Valley Electric Consumers agreed not to oppose the settlement. On March 2, 2023, the APSC issued a final order approving the non-unanimous settlement agreement, and new rates became effective April 1, 2023.

OCC Proceedings

2021 Oklahoma Fuel Prudency

On July 1, 2022, the OCC Public Utility Division Staff filed their application initiating the review of the 2021 fuel adjustment clause and prudence review. On February 21, 2023, a Joint Stipulation and Settlement Agreement was filed, and OG&E filed its testimony in support of such agreement. The stipulating parties, which include the OCC Public Utility Division Staff and the Oklahoma Attorney General, agreed that: (i) OG&E's practices, policies and judgment for fuel procurement during 2021 were prudent; (ii) OG&E's power purchase costs and expenses, monthly fuel filings and processes and fuel-related investments and decisions for 2021 were fair, just and reasonable and (iii) OG&E exercised prudent judgement pertaining to all such matters and that the electric generation, purchased power and fuel procurement expenses were prudently incurred. Further, the stipulating parties agreed to certain revisions of the fuel clause adjustment tariff, including a revised semi-annual fuel clause adjustment factor redetermination process which will be subject to the OCC Public Utility Division approval or denial. On April 20, 2023, the OCC issued a final order approving the Joint Stipulation and Settlement agreement, declaring that the electric generation, purchase power and fuel procurement practices, policies, judgment and fuel purchase costs and expenses incurred for the calendar year 2021 are approved as prudent, fair, just and reasonable.

Pending Regulatory Matters

Various proceedings pending before state or federal regulatory agencies are described below. Unless stated otherwise, the Registrants cannot predict when the regulatory agency will act or what action the regulatory agency will take. The Registrants' financial results are dependent in part on timely and constructive decisions by the regulatory agencies that set OG&E's rates.

FERC Proceedings

Order for Sponsored Transmission Upgrades within SPP

Under Attachment Z2 of the SPP Open Access Transmission Tariff, costs of participant-funded, or "sponsored," transmission upgrades may be recovered from other SPP customers whose transmission service depends on capacity enabled by the upgrade. The SPP Tariff required the SPP to charge for these upgrades beginning in 2008, but the SPP did not begin charging its customers for these upgrades until 2016 due to information system limitations. At that time, the SPP sought a waiver of a time limitation in its tariff that otherwise would have prevented it from waiting until 2016 to bill for the 2008 through 2015 period. The FERC granted the waiver, and the SPP then billed OG&E as a user for these Z2 charges while simultaneously crediting OG&E as a sponsor of Z2 transmission upgrades, resulting in OG&E being a net recipient of sponsored upgrade credits. The majority of these net credits were refunded to customers through OG&E's various rate riders that include SPP activity with the remaining amounts retained by OG&E.

Several companies that were net payers of Z2 charges sought rehearing of the FERC's 2016 order approving the waiver and then appealed it. While that appeal was pending, the FERC obtained a remand and then reversed itself and ruled that the SPP tariff provision that prohibited the 2008 through 2015 charges could not be waived. It ordered the SPP to develop a plan to refund the payments but not to implement the refunds until further ordered to do so. In response, in April 2019, OG&E filed a request for rehearing at the FERC. The next month, it also filed a Complaint at the FERC against the SPP contending that the SPP and not OG&E should bear the cost of any refunds resulting from the SPP's tariff violation and that SPP’s actions also violated its contracts with OG&E. In February 2020, the FERC denied OG&E's request for rehearing but did not consider SPP's refund plan. No date for payment of refunds was established. In August 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit denied OG&E's petition for review of the FERC's order denying the waiver and requiring refunds. After denying rehearing of its ruling, the court of appeals returned the matter in November 2021 to the FERC for further proceedings in accordance with its opinion. The FERC has not acted on that remand.

If the FERC proceeds to order refunds in full, OG&E estimates it would be required to refund $13.0 million, which is net of amounts paid to other utilities for upgrades and would be subject to interest at the FERC-approved rate. The SPP has stated in filings with the FERC both before and after the court of appeals decision that there are considerable complexities in implementing the refunds that will have to be resolved before they can be paid. Payment of refunds would shift recovery of these upgrade credits to future periods. The SPP filed a report on January 4, 2022 confirming that administering refunds would be complex and could take years unless the SPP is allowed to make certain simplifying assumptions. The SPP also urged that all pending complaint proceedings, including OG&E's complaint and three similar complaints against the SPP, be resolved before any refund process is ordered to begin. OG&E and other parties filed responses to the SPP report, and the matter remains pending at the FERC. Of the $13.0 million, the Registrants would be impacted by $5.0 million in expense that initially benefited the Registrants in 2016, and OG&E customers would incur a net impact of $8.0 million in expense through rider mechanisms or the FERC formula rate. As of March 31, 2023, the Registrants have reserved $13.0 million plus estimated interest for a potential refund.

In November 2022, the FERC issued an order denying OG&E's complaint against the SPP. It also issued orders granting the other three complaints against the SPP in part but awarded no relief. All four complainants timely sought rehearing of these orders. Those rehearing petitions remain pending, though the FERC has issued an order deeming them denied by operation of law, allowing OG&E and the other complainants to appeal them. OG&E and the other complainants have each accordingly filed petitions for review in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. The FERC can continue to consider the rehearings on the merits, and the complainants will be able to appeal any denial on the merits, as well.

In June 2020, the FERC approved, effective July 1, 2020, an SPP proposal to eliminate Attachment Z2 revenue crediting and replace it with a different rate mechanism that would provide project sponsors, such as OG&E, the same level of recovery. This elimination of the Attachment Z2 revenue crediting would only prospectively impact OG&E and its recovery of any future upgrade costs that it may incur as a project sponsor subsequent to July 2020. All of the existing projects that are eligible to receive revenue credits under Attachment Z2 will remain eligible, which includes the $13.0 million that is at issue in the remand from OG&E's appeal and in OG&E's complaint proceeding.

OCC Proceedings

Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act Causes

As previously disclosed, several rural electric cooperative electricity suppliers filed complaints with the OCC alleging that OG&E, because it was providing service to large loads in another supplier's territory, had violated the Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act. OG&E believes it is lawfully serving customers under specific exemptions under this act that allow it to serve customers having a load of one megawatt or greater. There were five complaint cases initiated at the OCC, and the OCC issued decisions on each of them. The OCC ruled in favor of the electric cooperatives in three of those cases under statutory interpretation and ruled in favor of OG&E in two of those cases under injunctive theory. All five of those cases were appealed to the Oklahoma Supreme Court.

On April 4, 2023, the Oklahoma Supreme Court issued its opinion which vacated the OCC's injunctions with respect to four of the cases and held that the Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act does not limit the mechanism by which OG&E may provide service to large loads in another supplier's territory pursuant to the one megawatt exception. The one pending legal issue left for the Oklahoma Supreme Court to resolve is a statutory interpretation on how a supplier calculates "connected load for initial full operation" for purposes of the exemption under the act. If the Oklahoma Supreme Court ultimately were to find that the customers being served in this single case are not exempted from the Oklahoma Retail Electric Supplier Certified Territory Act, OG&E would have to evaluate the recoverability of some plant investments made to serve these customers and may also be required to reimburse the certified territory supplier in this case for an amount of lost revenue. Such amounts would not be expected to be material to the Registrants' results of operations.

SPP Proceedings

Planning Reserve Margin and Performance Based Accreditation

On July 26, 2022, the SPP Board of Directors approved a planning reserve margin increase from 12 percent to 15 percent that each load serving entity, such as OG&E, must maintain. This change will be effective for the summer of 2023. OG&E has secured short-term bilateral contracts for the capacity needed to satisfy the 2023 requirements brought about by the increase to the SPP’s planning reserve margin.

At the same time, the SPP Board of Directors also approved a new unit accreditation methodology for conventional generation which requires submittal to and approval from the FERC prior to becoming effective. As a result, OG&E is currently evaluating its plan to fill the incremental capacity needs brought about by this policy change.
