Hydropower, solar, and wind driving California`s clean-energy transition | California`s Power Struggle
California is moving closer to its goal of 100% carbon-free energy by 2045 through a mix of solar, wind, hydropower, and innovative projects. The Sacramento Municipal Utility District`s Sierra Nevada reservoirs provide reliable hydropower, while statewide solar expansion has made it California`s largest energy source. Massive new projects like the Darden and Cornucopia solar farms, along with canal-top solar in Turlock, aim to balance supply and demand. Despite challenges, 67% of California`s electricity came from renewables in 2023, setting another record in the state`s clean-energy transition.
