If I recall correctly, ESAP is a CPUC program that the utilities (PG&E, SCE, SDG&E, etc) administrate, but the funding comes from the state. LiHEAP is a federally funded program. I worked as an auditor for CPUC energy savings programs, including ESAP - these are statewide programs and not specific to a given utility.

Dissolving PG&E wouldn't remove the CPUC program funding, nor would it remove the work. Contracts would need to be renegotiated, but whatever utility springs up in PG&E's place (publicly or privately owned) will still need to comply with the CPUC mandates for energy efficiency, and the state funding will continue, so that work will still happen.
