Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment and Related Information | (PPL) PPL is organized into three segments, broken down by geographic location: Kentucky Regulated, Pennsylvania Regulated, and Rhode Island Regulated. The Kentucky Regulated segment consists primarily of the regulated electricity generation, transmission and distribution operations conducted by LG&E and KU, as well as LG&E's regulated transmission, distribution and sale of natural gas. The Pennsylvania Regulated segment includes the regulated electricity transmission and distribution operations of PPL Electric. The Rhode Island Regulated segment includes the regulated electricity transmission and distribution and natural gas distribution operations of RIE, which was acquired in May of 2022. "Corporate and Other" primarily includes corporate level financing costs, certain unallocated corporate costs, and certain non-recoverable costs incurred in conjunction with the acquisition of Rhode Island Energy and the financial results of Safari Energy, prior to its sale on November 1, 2022. "Corporate and Other" is presented to reconcile segment information to PPL's consolidated results and is not a reportable segment. PPL's CODM is the Corporate Leadership Council (CLC), which is a management committee that is comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer and Chief Legal Officer. The CLC uses financial metrics including segment net income, earnings from ongoing operations, earnings per share and return on equity, as well as various operational metrics to assess segment performance and make investment and resource decisions. Segment net income is the measure of segment profit or loss that most closely aligns with GAAP and is being presented for disclosure purposes. The tables below provide information about PPL’s segments and include the reconciliation to consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2024:
