Sempra (NYSE: SRE) completed the sale of Ecogas México, a natural gas distribution network in Mexico serving over 600,000 customers in Mexicali, Chihuahua and La Laguna-Durango. The sale is part of Sempra Infrastructure's capital recycling strategy.
The transaction generated approximately $500 million in U.S. dollar-equivalent proceeds and advances Sempra's record $65 billion five-year capital plan, with more than 95% of planned investments targeted to regulated utility infrastructure in Texas and California. Alongside an agreement to sell a 45% equity interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners to KKR affiliates, expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, these actions are expected to support grid investments, strengthen the balance sheet and reduce reliance on future common-equity issuances.

According to SoCalGas, PDIP installed over 2,000 efficiency measures across 845 projects, cutting about 16.3 million net therms of energy use over the equipment’s lifetime. Colton Joint Unified School District completed 150 measures, including 84 tankless water heaters, reducing natural gas consumption by about 20% and receiving more than $800,000 in incentives.

According to SoCalGas, growing 811 use coincides with a 32% reduction in dig-in incidents since 2019. About 2,400 dig-ins occurred in 2025, with nearly 60% happening when 811 was not called and approximately 70% occurring on private property, underscoring the need for continued public awareness.

The uniforms use lightweight flame-resistant materials to add protection while supporting mobility and comfort in varied field conditions. SoCalGas selected the designs based on employee feedback and operational needs. A key visual change is a shift from traditional blue to a modern gray with updated company identification, along with expanded sizing and improved fits to serve a diverse workforce and job functions. According to SoCalGas, these updates support its commitment to customer safety, trust and reliable service. The new uniforms will be phased in across its service territory beginning in August 2026.
