California Energy Commission (CEC)
California officials are exploring how to improve the process for dispensing hundreds of millions in federal funding to construct a public network of electric vehicle charging stations.
California's charging network is getting a boost from two different directions: a state program aimed at providing high-density Level 2 chargers in underserved areas and the opening of Tesla’s charging network to non-Tesla vehicles.
Currently under construction, the Viejas microgrid will combine 15 MW of solar with 38 MWh of long-duration, non-lithium storage and is the first loan the LPO has made under its long-dormant Tribal Energy Financing Program.
Targeted electrification could allow decommissioning of up to 10% of gas mains but is no silver bullet for solving the gas cost challenge, researchers say.
The California Energy Commission approved a plan for spending $1.85 billion over the next four years to expand zero-emission vehicle infrastructure across the state.
Slower anticipated growth in California’s population has prompted state regulators to downwardly revise the electricity demand forecast used for grid planning.
A recent study found that deploying 37 GW of long-duration energy storage could help bring California to zero emissions by 2045.
Communities historically excluded from decisions around energy use must be given a greater role in the transition to a cleaner energy system, said participants at the CEC-Stanford Energy Innovation Summit.
The California Energy Commission released a draft plan for offshore wind that adds to the rapidly growing body of work identifying wind power as crucial to achieving state and national clean energy goals.
The California Energy Commission approved a $30 million grant to Form Energy to build a 100-hour battery energy storage system.
