Exelon Corporation has announced the appointment of Colette D. Honorable as its new Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary, following the departure of Gayle Littleton, who will assume the role of Special Advisor to the CEO until March 31. Honorable, who joined Exelon in 2023, has been leading the company's work in policy and regulatory affairs and will now take on an expanded role, overseeing the Legal Department in addition to her current responsibilities.

Littleton, who joined Exelon in 2020, played a key role in the historic separation of Exelon’s generation and retail power business from its utility business in 2022. She also successfully resolved government investigations and significant litigation related to ComEd’s deferred prosecution agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice. Littleton led the company’s litigation at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on the regulatory treatment of data centers co-locating at generating stations.

Exelon President and CEO Calvin Butler expressed his gratitude to Littleton for her leadership and achievements, acknowledging her role in positioning Exelon for the future. He also emphasized the vital role Honorable will play in advancing Exelon’s legal and federal policy efforts, advocating for customers and communities in every jurisdiction the company serves.

Honorable, who previously served as a FERC Commissioner and held leadership positions in the energy regulatory sector, has been actively involved in various industry organizations and serves on the boards of several energy and environmental institutions.

Exelon, a Fortune 200 company and the nation’s largest utility company, serves more than 10.5 million customers through six fully regulated transmission and distribution utilities. The company’s 20,000 employees are dedicated to supporting communities through reliable, affordable, and efficient energy delivery, workforce development, equity, economic development, and volunteerism. The market has reacted to these announcements by moving the company's shares 0.5% to a price of $38.58. For more information, read the company's full 8-K submission here.
