Anthony Earley, the executive chairman of DTE Energy Co., will take over from Lee Cox, who has been serving as interim CEO since longtime leader Peter Darbee stepped down in April.

In a statement, Cox called Earley "the person best qualified to help us win back public confidence."

Darbee retired at a time when PG&E was under intense regulatory pressure following a gas pipe explosion in suburban San Francisco that killed eight people and destroyed 38 homes. Federal and state officials have criticized the company for poor record keeping and safety procedures.
