Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract] |
MARKETABLE SECURITIES | MARKETABLE SECURITIES Eversource holds marketable securities that are primarily used to fund certain non-qualified executive benefits. The trusts that hold these marketable securities are not subject to regulatory oversight by state or federal agencies. Eversource’s marketable securities also include the CYAPC and YAEC legally restricted trusts that each hold equity and available-for-sale debt securities to fund the spent nuclear fuel removal obligations of their nuclear fuel storage facilities. Equity and available-for-sale debt marketable securities are recorded at fair value, with the current portion recorded in Prepayments and Other Current Assets and the long-term portion recorded in Marketable Securities on the balance sheets. Equity Securities: Unrealized gains and losses on equity securities held in Eversource's non-qualified executive benefit trust are recorded in Other Income, Net on the statements of income. The fair value of these equity securities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $3.1 million and $20.0 million, respectively. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were unrealized losses of $4.7 million recorded in Other Income, Net related to these equity securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were unrealized losses of $3.9 million and $9.1 million recorded in Other Income, Net related to these equity securities, respectively. Eversource's equity securities also include CYAPC's and YAEC's marketable securities held in spent nuclear fuel trusts, which had fair values of $161.6 million and $170.1 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses for these spent nuclear fuel trusts are subject to regulatory accounting treatment and are recorded in Marketable Securities with the corresponding offset to long-term liabilities on the balance sheets, with no impact on the statements of income. Available-for-Sale Debt Securities: The following is a summary of the available-for-sale debt securities:
| As of June 30, 2023 |  | As of December 31, 2022
Eversource (Millions of Dollars) | Amortized Cost |  | Pre-Tax Unrealized Gains |  | Pre-Tax Unrealized Losses |  | Fair Value |  | Amortized Cost |  | Pre-Tax Unrealized Gains |  | Pre-Tax Unrealized Losses |  | Fair Value
Debt Securities | $ | 203.6 |  |  | $ | 0.1 |  |  | $ | (10.9) |  |  | $ | 192.8 |  |  | $ | 201.6 |  |  | $ | 0.1 |  |  | $ | (16.2) |  |  | $ | 185.5 |
Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities held in Eversource's non-qualified executive benefit trust are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, excluding amounts related to credit losses or losses on securities intended to be sold, which are recorded in Other Income, Net. There were $1.2 million of unrealized losses recorded on securities intended to be sold for the six months ended June 30, 2023 that were included in Other Income, Net. There have been no credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and no allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2023. Factors considered in determining whether a credit loss exists include adverse conditions specifically affecting the issuer, the payment history, ratings and rating changes of the security, and the severity of the impairment. For asset-backed debt securities, underlying collateral and expected future cash flows are also evaluated. Debt securities included in Eversource's non-qualified benefit trust portfolio are investment-grade bonds with a lower default risk based on their credit quality. Eversource's debt securities also include CYAPC's and YAEC's marketable securities held in spent nuclear fuel trusts in the amounts of $165.8 million and $163.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sale debt securities included in the CYAPC and YAEC spent nuclear fuel trusts are subject to regulatory accounting treatment and are recorded in Marketable Securities with the corresponding offset to long-term liabilities on the balance sheets, with no impact on the statements of income. Pre-tax unrealized gains and losses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 primarily relate to the debt securities included in CYAPC's and YAEC's spent nuclear fuel trusts. As of June 30, 2023, the contractual maturities of available-for-sale debt securities were as follows:
Eversource (Millions of Dollars) | Amortized Cost |  | Fair Value
Less than one year (1) | $ | 46.6 |  |  | $ | 46.6 |
One to five years | 31.5 |  |  | 30.6 |
Six to ten years | 39.3 |  |  | 37.4 |
Greater than ten years | 86.2 |  |  | 78.2 |
Total Debt Securities | $ | 203.6 |  |  | $ | 192.8 |
(1) Amounts in the Less than one year category include securities in the CYAPC and YAEC spent nuclear fuel trusts, which are restricted and are classified in long-term Marketable Securities on the balance sheets. Amounts also include securities in Eversource’s non-qualified executive benefit trust, which are intended to be sold in 2023. Realized Gains and Losses: Realized gains and losses are recorded in Other Income, Net for Eversource's benefit trust and are offset in long-term liabilities for CYAPC and YAEC. Eversource utilizes the specific identification basis method for the Eversource non-qualified benefit trust, and the average cost basis method for the CYAPC and YAEC spent nuclear fuel trusts to compute the realized gains and losses on the sale of marketable securities.
