Description

Energy data and map are from the California Energy Commission and include utility scale

power plants. Plants of any type below 1 MW (e.g. residential solar) are not included. Values

shown are as of the end of the year, which may not include plants that went out of service

within the year. Hydroelectric plants of 30 MW and less are considered renewable energy

sources in California. Hydroelectric plants over 30 MW are non-renewable. Counties without

pie symbols had no utility scale renewable energy capacity for the year. Data is for 2023 and

is current as of July 2, 2024. Projection: NAD 1983 (2011) California (Teale) Albers (Meters).
