California's non-CO2 emitting electric generation categories (nuclear, large hydroelectric, and renewables) accounted for 51 percent of its in-state generation, compared to 57 percent in 2019. The change is directly attributable to the significantly reduced hydroelectric generation, some 44 percent lower than 2019 generation levels, as dry conditions returned to the state. Net imports increased by about 6 percent (4,435 GWh) in 2020 to 81,663 GWh, partially offsetting the decreased output from California’s hydroelectric power plants. }}</ref> This accounted for 70% of CA's demand in 2020; the remaining 30% was imported.{{ r | En_CAgov_2020 }} | label1 = Natural gas | value1 = 48.35 | color1 = orange | label2 = Renewables - Solar | value2 = 15.43 | color2 = yellow | label3 = Renewables - Wind | value3 = 7.18 | color3 = aqua | label4 = Renewables - Other (Geothermal, biomass, etc.) | value4 = 10.74 | color4 = green | label5 = Large hydro | value5 = 9.40 | color5 = blue | label6 = Nuclear | value6 = 8.53 | color6 = purple }} [[File:California electricity generation by source 2001-2020.png|thumb|California in-state electricity generation by source 2001-2020 (ignores imports which made up 32% of demand in 2018, but varies by year) - 2012 is when [[San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station]] shutdown; 2017 & 2019 were high rainfall years]] This is a list of '''[[power station]]s in the U.S. state of [[California]]''' that are used for utility-scale electricity generation. This includes [[Base load|baseload]], [[Peaking power plant|peaking]], and [[Grid energy storage|energy storage]] power stations, but does not include large [[backup generator]]s. {{As of|2018}}, California had 80 GW of installed generation capacity encompassing more than 1,500 power plants; with 41 GW of natural gas, 26.5 GW of renewable (12 GW solar, 6 GW wind), 12 GW large hydroelectric, and 2.4 GW nuclear.{{ r | En_CAgov | p=1 | q=California has approximately 80,000 MW of electric generation capacity installed across the state amongst more than 1,500 power plants utilizing a broad array of technologies. Total installed renewable generation capacity is 26,500 MW with almost 12,000 MW from solar and 6,000 MW from wind. Large hydroelectric power plants, considered a zero-carbon resource, provide an additional 12,000 MW of capacity while California's last remaining operational nuclear power plant, Diablo Canyon, provides 2,400 MW. Natural gas-fired power plants make up 41,000 MW or about half of the state's total generating capacity, but their energy is displaced by hydroelectric generation during wet years when spring runoff from snowpack is plentiful. The tremendous growth in utility-scale renewable generation has also helped reduce the state's reliance on natural gas, favoring those power plants that can provide fast-ramping capabilities to integrate wind and solar generation while displacing the use of aging steam generators that are slow to respond to changing grid conditions. }} In 2018, California had a total summer capacity of 75,926&nbsp;MW through all of its power plants, and a net energy generation of 195,265&nbsp;GWh.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.eia.gov/electricity/state/california/ |title=California Electricity Profile |publisher=U.S. Energy Information Administration |access-date=2020-08-22}}</ref> Its electricity production was the third largest in the nation behind Texas and Florida.

California's non-CO2 emitting electric generation categories (nuclear, large hydroelectric, and renewables) accounted for 51 percent of its in-state generation, compared to 57 percent in 2019. The change is directly attributable to the significantly reduced hydroelectric generation, some 44 percent lower than 2019 generation levels, as dry conditions returned to the state. Net imports increased by about 6 percent (4,435 GWh) in 2020 to 81,663 GWh, partially offsetting the decreased output from California’s hydroelectric power plants. }}</ref> This accounted for 70% of CA's demand in 2020; the remaining 30% was imported.{{ r | En_CAgov_2020 }} | label1 = Natural gas | value1 = 48.35 | color1 = orange | label2 = Renewables - Solar | value2 = 15.43 | color2 = yellow | label3 = Renewables - Wind | value3 = 7.18 | color3 = aqua | label4 = Renewables - Other (Geothermal, biomass, etc.) | value4 = 10.74 | color4 = green | label5 = Large hydro | value5 = 9.40 | color5 = blue | label6 = Nuclear | value6 = 8.53 | color6 = purple }} [[File:California electricity generation by source 2001-2020.png|thumb|California in-state electricity generation by source 2001-2020 (ignores imports which made up 32% of demand in 2018, but varies by year) - 2012 is when [[San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station]] shutdown; 2017 & 2019 were high rainfall years]] This is a list of '''[[power station]]s in the U.S. state of [[California]]''' that are used for utility-scale electricity generation. This includes [[Base load|baseload]], [[Peaking power plant|peaking]], and [[Grid energy storage|energy storage]] power stations, but does not include large [[backup generator]]s. {{As of|2018}}, California had 80 GW of installed generation capacity encompassing more than 1,500 power plants; with 41 GW of natural gas, 26.5 GW of renewable (12 GW solar, 6 GW wind), 12 GW large hydroelectric, and 2.4 GW nuclear.{{ r | En_CAgov | p=1 | q=California has approximately 80,000 MW of electric generation capacity installed across the state amongst more than 1,500 power plants utilizing a broad array of technologies. Total installed renewable generation capacity is 26,500 MW with almost 12,000 MW from solar and 6,000 MW from wind. Large hydroelectric power plants, considered a zero-carbon resource, provide an additional 12,000 MW of capacity while California's last remaining operational nuclear power plant, Diablo Canyon, provides 2,400 MW. Natural gas-fired power plants make up 41,000 MW or about half of the state's total generating capacity, but their energy is displaced by hydroelectric generation during wet years when spring runoff from snowpack is plentiful. The tremendous growth in utility-scale renewable generation has also helped reduce the state's reliance on natural gas, favoring those power plants that can provide fast-ramping capabilities to integrate wind and solar generation while displacing the use of aging steam generators that are slow to respond to changing grid conditions. }} In 2018, California had a total summer capacity of 75,926&nbsp;MW through all of its power plants, and a net energy generation of 195,265&nbsp;GWh.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.eia.gov/electricity/state/california/ |title=California Electricity Profile |publisher=U.S. Energy Information Administration |access-date=2020-08-22}}</ref> Its electricity production was the third largest in the nation behind Texas and Florida.
