Some moments feel small while they’re happening, but later you realize they were the ones your heart needed most. Slow down for the memories you’re making today… they’re already becoming the ones you’ll hold onto tomorrow.

NEW: California now has nearly 17,000 megawatts of battery storage – reaching one-third of the way to our 2045 goal.

We're deploying more battery storage than any state in America, building a stronger grid, cutting pollution, and securing a safer future for our nation.
