#CAClimateAction #CleanEnergyFuture #SB100

The report is the initial analysis called for in #SenateBill100.

#SB100 is the state’s landmark policy requiring renewable & zero-carbon energy resources supply 100% of electric retail sales to customers by 2045.

#CAClimateAction #CleanEnergyFuture #RenewableEnergy

The report found that the goals of #SB100 can be achieved, but reaching them will require significant investments in new & existing technologies. It also requires an increased, sustained build-out of #CleanEnergy projects to bring those resources on-line.

 #SB100 builds on the significant progress CA has already made toward a #CleanEnergyFuture including efforts that promote renewable energy, energy efficiency & storage technologies.

#CAClimateAction is essential as the state continues to face the damaging effects of #ClimateChange like never before.
