California Electric System

California's electric system is a complex network that generates, transmits, and distributes electricity across the state. It includes power plants that produce electricity from various sources like natural gas, renewables, and imports from neighboring states. The grid, managed by entities like the California ISO, balances supply and demand in real-time to ensure reliable service. Utility companies deliver electricity to homes and businesses. The system is designed to integrate renewable energy, manage fluctuations, and maintain stability, all while complying with environmental standards and supporting California's clean energy goals.
