    It's hard to believe that California is the world's fifth largest economy. Great to see both them and China growing clean energy as rapidly as they are. Europe's also committed. The tide will turn again on the global scale towards accelerating adoption.

    "The world’s fifth largest economy is being powered by more clean energy than ever before, breaking records and accelerating our progress towards 100% clean electricity by 2045. At 10,379 megawatts (MW), the state has increased battery capacity by 1,250% since the beginning of the Newsom Administration – up from 770 MW in 2019. California’s power grid has set a series of clean energy records this year. For at least 100 days this year, clean energy has exceeded grid demand consumed at some point during the day. Thanks to new clean energy resources and the surge in battery storage, California’s power grid withstood this July’s record two-week heat wave – and even exported power to other states. Governor Newsom has taken unprecedented action to streamline clean energy infrastructure and invest billions of dollars to build more faster.
