Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On September 18, 2008, the California Public Utilities Commission issued a decision on the appeal by Edison International’s subsidiary Southern California Edison Company from a previous Presiding Officer’s Decision regarding the investigation of past and potential performance based ratemaking (“PBR”) rewards related to the areas of customer satisfaction and employee safety. The decision will result in Southern California Edison Company recording a non-recurring charge of approximately $52 million (or approximately $0.16 per share) after-tax in the third quarter of 2008. As further discussed in Edison International’s second quarter 2008 Form 10-Q (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements therein), Southern California Edison Company had previously recorded a reserve of approximately $52 million, pre-tax, plus interest, in connection with the PBR proceeding.
