It's running a proof-of-stake network in parallel to the main chain, which is still running proof-of-work. The proof-of-stake network has been running for a bit over a year and has $30 billion in ETH deposited. Code for merging the two networks and eliminating mining is on a public test net right now. Previous upgrades have gone live within a year of the launch of their public test nets.
