A huge congratulations to Senator Gonzalez, our 2025 Offshore Wind Champion! From championing Prop 4 funding for port infrastructure to supporting California’s reliable energy future, her leadership is supporting jobs and economic growth across the state.

It's official. Newsom signed AB 825, clearing the way for money-saving, California-based, independently governed electricity markets for the West. Thanks to @CAgovernor, @CASpeakerRivas, @ilike_mike, @AsmCottie, @SenJoshBecker and many more for their advocacy.

A slew of energy-related bills come in the final days of the California legislative session, including one that aims to boost oil production in the state: https://t.co/RxZYAUY162 @sdut @CAgovernor @CAvsBigOil @CleanPowerCA @ConsumerWD @J_GallagherAD3 #Energy

Gavin Newsom and CA legislative leaders struck a deal on regional electricity markets with a 5:43 a.m. timestamp. It's the right approach - one that can save Californians "real money," and enable partnership with our neighbors, said ACP-CA's Alex Jackson https://t.co/1pdraEpa5C

The proposal for bigger electricity markets in the West just got a senatorial boost. It's getting harder to pay electric bills. A workable SB 540 can help, say @SenAlexPadilla @AdamSchiff @RonWyden @PattyMurray @SenatorCantwell @SenJeffMerkley. https://t.co/uaqSoGKPOU

🚨 Federal chaos is sparking warning signs for clean energy investment. Policy actions and an unstable tariff environment have led to a drop in clean power purchasing and planning for the future—despite skyrocketing demand nationwide. ACP’s new Q2 Clean Power Quarterly Market

A race is on among states: Who can build clean energy fastest and claim expiring federal tax credits? Colorado has a head start, but CA is in the running after a Friday order from Newsom, Politico reports. Also in the mix: CT, ME, MN, OR and NY. https://t.co/fQNU6a2OxH

ICYMI on Friday -- Good energy policy advanced in California. AB 1156 would make it easier for farmers to put solar on their land if they want to, and SB 302 would cut a state tax on energy development. Newsom took executive action that also could help https://t.co/5Q5cPMliIm

Geothermal energy is on the rise and CA could be a major player. Interesting stats from @whereishayley: CA is home to the world’s largest geothermal field in Sonoma and Lake counties CA is the nation's top geo producer -- 66% of total geo electricity! https://t.co/7S59Lsv7ma

Save the beer @ilike_mike. Save $1 billion/year on electricity. Pass a workable SB 540. https://t.co/wfPpUiT62u

Finally, a beer analogy for regional energy markets: "If your favorite local bar runs out of beer during a big game, you’re out of luck — unless it’s part of a network of bars that can send over an emergency keg. A regional energy market works the same way." Nice, @SierraNevada

The Trump Administration's solar and wind policies will drive up electric bills around the country. They impede the fastest, cheapest sources of new power. But California is "not helpless in this fight,” ACP-CA Director Alex Jackson told @sfchronicle. https://t.co/IWzz9R4yyx

I'm calling on the Legislature to enable the expansion of regional energy markets to lower energy costs, reduce air pollution, and avoid power outages. This is our best shot at making electric bills more affordable and securing a clean, reliable energy future.

California electricity bills keep going up. Lawmakers want to do something about it. SB 540 opens the door to more than $1 BILLION/year in savings. Californians can't afford this opportunity to be missed. Find out more:

Lawmakers looking to act on affordability should fix and pass SB 540. https://t.co/hspSH4WGik

Tom Philp of @sacbee_news cuts through the noise on Sacramento's energy markets debate. "This is a pocketbook issue. Is California bound and determined to buy more renewable power in the most expensive way possible rather than through an efficient market? https://t.co/C70z1iBrOt

New supplies of cheap, clean electricity aren't getting to CA customers because of delayed transmission projects, @UCSUSA finds. Delays avg 6 years. Utilities aren't prioritizing projects. Some take 3x longer than estimated. It's a slow-motion crisis. https://t.co/jLs1W8On7Z

We represent the solar, wind and geothermal companies putting steel in the ground. We've got ideas for how California can continue to lead in this moment. Here's a start:

"We’re proving that a world powered by clean energy isn’t only possible, it’s probable." Well put, @CAgovernor. Clean energy = economic growth, good jobs, and cheap, fast electricity. https://t.co/hzAEDh3ioa

NEW: @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom in an op-ed in @WSJ: Clean Energy Powers California’s Economic Growth “More than two-thirds of the state’s electricity is from sources such as solar, wind and geothermal.”
