Utility-Scale Renewable and Non-Renewable Electrical Generation by County

Energy Data is collected for power plants that have a nameplate capacity of 1 MW or more. Counties without pie symbols had no utility-scale (commercial) electric generation installed. Distributed renewable generation (e.g. rooftop solar) is not included. Map and data originate from the California Energy Commission Quarterly Fuel and Energy Reports. Data is from 2020, and is current as of February 2022. For more information, please contact Rebecca Vail at(916) 477-0738 or John Hingtgen at (916) 510-9747.
