(a) All other activities relate to SunCor, APSES and El Dorado. Loss from discontinued
operations in 2012 is primarily related to a contribution Pinnacle West expects to
make to SunCor’s estate as part of a negotiated resolution to the bankruptcy (see Note
21). Income from discontinued operations for 2011 is primarily related to the sale of
our investment in APSES. Income from discontinued operations for 2010 is
primarily related to the APSES sale of its district cooling business. None of these
segments is a reportable business segment.

program, we may use derivative instruments to hedge purchases and sales of electricity and fuels.
Derivative instruments that meet certain hedge accounting criteria may be designated as cash flow
hedges and are used to limit our exposure to cash flow variability on forecasted transactions. The
changes in market value of such instruments have a high correlation to price changes in the hedged
transactions. We also enter into derivative instruments for economic hedging purposes. While we
