Enron ownership and West Coast power-trading controversy
PGE was owned by Enron during the parent company's accounting collapse and the California electricity crisis. Enron executives and energy traders associated with the broader group, including personnel who worked from offices connected with PGE's corporate facilities, were prosecuted for financial crimes. The cited material distinguishes these matters from claims that PGE's regulated utility operations themselves participated in Enron's accounting misconduct.
