Although the cause of California's wildfires may never be known, PG&E may be liable. Will customers have to pay any losses that exceed the insurance coverage available?
More than 1.5 million people are still without power as Matthew on Sunday brought Hurricane-force wind gusts and flooding to the outer banks of North Carolina, where the storm left at least seven dead.
Power plants may not have enough access to natural gas on as many as 14 days this summer to produce electricity in Southern California during certain peak-use times.
Warren Buffett highlights how his Berkshire Hathaway Inc. utilities make massive investments in renewable energy. Meanwhile, in Nevada, the company is fighting a plan that would encourage more residents to use green power.
George Shultz's latest cause is one few fellow Republicans support: fighting climate change.
