ROSEMEAD, Calif., March 10, 2010 � Southern California Edison (SCE), an Edison International company (NYSE:EIX), and SunPower Corp. (Nasdaq: SPWRA, SPWRB) announced today that SunPower has won a contract to provide solar technology for generating up to 200 megawatts, or 80 percent, of the solar power capacity needed for the utility�s large solar photovoltaic installation program.

During the next five years, SCE plans to install, own and operate 250 megawatts of solar generating capacity, most of it on otherwise unused large warehouse rooftops. The large one- to two-million-watt solar installations will be connected directly to neighborhood distribution circuits where the leased rooftops are located.

�The anticipated benefits of this agreement with SunPower include panel costs that will allow us to meet our commitment to increasing our customers� supply of renewable energy while reducing the cost of installed solar photovoltaic power in California,� said SCE President John R. Fielder.

SCE is purchasing the SunPower T5 Solar Roof Tile product, which integrates into a single unit a solar panel, frame and roof mounting system, thereby reducing installation time and costs. In addition, the SunPower product was selected because it will allow SCE to produce more power per installation.

�The SCE program reflects the growing value of advanced solar panel technology as a reliable, cost-effective energy resource that can be installed quickly, anywhere and at any scale,� said Howard Wenger, president of SunPower�s utilities and power plant business group. �SunPower applauds SCE�s commitment to rooftop solar development, which is unprecedented in the utility industry.�

In a related development, on January 21, 2010, the California Public Utilities Commission approved the process to be used for a second track of solar installations that will double the size of SCE�s photovoltaic program. Regulators previously directed SCE to conduct a competitive solicitation offering long-term power contracts to independent solar power providers willing to install an additional 250 megawatts of photovoltaic generation. SCE hopes to launch the solicitation later this month. Eventually, the two installation tracks will add a total of 500 megawatts to the solar generating capacity of Southern California�s power resources � the largest U.S. photovoltaic program ever undertaken.

SCE Solar Project Benefits

New generation sources will be installed in areas where customer demand is rising.
The installations will speed up California�s deployment of solar generation while major new renewable energy transmission lines are being built such as SCE�s 4,500 megawatt Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project.
SCE grid engineers will be studying the electrical effects of a high penetration of photovoltaics on distribution circuits and adapting circuits to accommodate these large installations. The information gained will be shared with the power industry.
SCE anticipates its solar power project will create as many as 800 new green jobs in Southern California in the solar industry. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, one of SCE�s project partners, is supporting the project through the expansion of its solar installation apprentice training program.

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Recognizes Southern California Edison with Highest Honor for Energy Efficiency

March 1, 2010 - Edison International Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2009 Earnings

Media relations contact: Charles Coleman, (626) 302-7982
Investor relations contact: Scott Cunningham, (626) 302-2540

ROSEMEAD, Calif., Mar. 1, 2010 � Edison International (NYSE: EIX) today reported fourth quarter 2009 basic earnings of $0.65 per share, compared to $0.66 per share in the same quarter last year. Fourth quarter 2009 core earnings were $0.59 per share compared to $0.66 per share in the fourth quarter of 2008. The decline is largely attributable to lower earnings at Edison Mission Group (EMG), partially offset by higher operating results at Southern California Edison (SCE). Core earnings exclude discontinued operations and other non-core items as discussed below.

"Despite a difficult economy, our 2009 performance was solid, and we are pleased we were able to achieve earnings above the high end of our earnings guidance range,� said Theodore F. Craver, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of Edison International.

Note: Basic earnings or losses per share refer to basic earnings or losses per common share attributable to Edison International throughout this release. Core earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure. See Reconciliation of Core Earnings to Basic Earnings and Reconciliation of Core Earnings Guidance to Basic Earnings Guidance.

Fourth Quarter Earnings Detail

SCE�s fourth quarter 2009 basic earnings were $0.53 per share compared to $0.43 per share in the fourth quarter 2008. Core earnings were $0.51 per share compared to $0.43 per share in the same quarter last year. This increase was primarily due to higher operating income associated with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) General Rate Case (GRC) decisions, partially offset by higher income taxes. Fourth quarter 2009 non-core results include $0.02 per share from revised interest costs related to the global tax settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

EMG�s fourth quarter 2009 basic earnings were $0.17 per share compared to $0.25 per share in the fourth quarter of 2008. Core earnings were $0.13 per share compared to $0.25 per share in the same quarter last year. Core earnings declined primarily from lower energy prices at merchant coal-fired projects, lower trading income and lower results at Edison Capital, partially offset by lower income taxes. Core earnings included unrealized gains on hedge contracts of $0.03 per share in the fourth quarter of 2009 and $0.04 per share in the fourth quarter of 2008. Core results in 2008 included a $0.04 charge to cancel a contract to supply natural gas turbines. Fourth quarter 2009 non-core items include $0.04 per share from the global tax settlement with the IRS, reflecting the revised interest costs discussed above.

Edison International parent company and other reported a fourth quarter 2009 loss of $0.05 per share compared to a $0.02 per share loss in the fourth quarter 2008. Earnings declined primarily from higher income tax expenses.

Full Year Earnings Summary

Edison International reported 2009 basic earnings of $2.59 per share compared to $3.69 per share in 2008. Core earnings for 2009 were $3.25 per share compared to $3.84 per share in 2008. Non-core items in 2009 include $0.78 per share loss related to the global tax settlement with the IRS and the associated termination of Edison Capital�s cross-border leveraged leases, a $0.14 per share non-cash accounting benefit at SCE from the transfer of its Mountainview power plant to utility rate base and a $0.02 per share loss from discontinued operations at EMG.

Full Year Earnings Detail

SCE�s basic earnings in 2009 were $3.76 per share compared to $2.10 per share in 2008. Core earnings for 2009 were $2.68 per share compared to $2.25 per share in 2008. The increase in core earnings was primarily due to higher operating income associated with the CPUC and FERC GRC decisions, partially offset by higher income taxes. In addition, core earnings were favorably impacted from lower than planned financings during the year, primarily from cash received for tax-related timing differences and other benefits. SCE�s 2009 core earnings exclude a $0.94 per share benefit from the global tax settlement, a $0.14 per share benefit from the transfer of the Mountainview power plant to utility rate base and SCE�s 2008 core earnings exclude the $0.15 per share charge from the CPUC�s performance-based ratemaking decision.

EMG�s basic loss in 2009 was $1.21 per share compared to basic earnings of $1.72 per share in 2008. Core earnings in 2009 were $0.68 per share compared to $1.72 per share in 2008. The decrease in core earnings reflects lower income from merchant coal and gas-fired projects driven by lower energy prices, as well as lower trading income and lower earnings at Edison Capital. Core earnings included unrealized gains on hedge contracts of $0.11 per share in 2009 and gains of $0.03 per share in 2008. Core results for 2008 included $0.03 per share for the favorable buy-out of a coal contract, and a $0.04 per share charge for a natural gas turbine supply agreement cancellation. EMG�s 2009 core earnings exclude losses of $1.87 per share from the global tax settlement and a loss of $0.02 per share from discontinued operations.
