1/ When California's grid is strained, @leahstokes is able to generate clean, cheap power for her neighborhood using her home's solar panels and battery backup. She, along with 200,000 others, are part of the Demand Side Grid Support Program (DSGS).

2/ Think of it like a massive, invisible power plant hidden in plain sight: an interconnected web of home batteries, smart thermostats, and other tech working in unison to ease demand and pump electricity back into the grid.

3/ Yet, as Dr. Stokes writes, "Newsom’s proposed budget would stop funding after 2026, redirecting taxpayer dollars to an investor-owned utility program that costs more and delivers far less."
It's vital for the legislature to fund DSGS through 2028. sfchronicle.com/opinion/open…

New CA polling: 83% of voters want lower power bills. 86% want utilities to prove grid efficiency before new spending. 86% support tying exec pay to affordability. The will is there — now we need the legislation. deploy-action.org

The numbers are in, and the message is clear: California voters want decisive action on skyrocketing electricity costs. ⚡️📊
Better yet: California lawmakers can deliver on what voters want with legislation that’s on the table right now.

Californians pay roughly double the national average on electricity — partly because utilities profit from building more, not using what we have. Grid utilization fixes that. @DeployAction is championing it in CA, just like we passed in VA.

The grid is under pressure. US electricity demand is expected to grow by roughly 128 GW over the next five years. But building more isn't our only solution.

This is just common sense. 👏
We're proud to support @SenJoshBecker's SB 913 as a part of the California Electricity Affordability Pathway—a practical package to lower electricity bills and make the grid work better for families and businesses.

SB 1295: Cutting bills and Reducing Fossil Power with Small Local Battery Storage
This bill passed out of committee today and helps lower energy costs and reduce reliance on fossil fuels by expanding small, local battery storage in our communities. That means cleaner energy, a more reliable grid, and real savings for Californians.

Electricity bills are too high in CA. The status quo is not delivering the affordability ratepayers deserve. How do we make clean energy work for all—affordably, durably, and at scale?
Last week, we hosted the Clean Energy Affordability Summit with CA FWD and @ucdavisenergy .

What if clean energy didn’t just power your home, but strengthened the entire grid?
Marin Clean Energy is piloting a virtual power plant system that links batteries, smart appliances, and other distributed energy resources.

Two key bills that we are proud to support, SB 540 and 541, were passed through the California Senate Energy, Utilities, and Communications Committee on April 21. SB 540 and 541 are promising steps toward our goal of clean energy abundance for all.
