This group of corrupt execs are the same people entrusted to make safety and maintenance decisions for Diablo Canyon.
The state has ~150 million dead trees ready to ignite, and needs to reduce the size of its forests by roughly the size of Maine in order to get back to a safer fire risk. That is just irresponsible forest management.
When you are in that situation, needing to run power lines across a tinderbox that should have never been allowed to exist, then you're not going to be able to have reliable power no matter the bonus scandal.
"PG&E paid top execs $17 million in bonuses from 2012 to 2017"

Much cheaper to replace hooks that are worn through so the cables don’t fall off the tower and start a fire.
