As the pillar of California’s economy, Silicon Valley is home to the innovative companies and world-class institutions that drive the clean energy and frontier technology solutions of the future. Yet, without establishing access to reliable and affordable clean energy sources that we can turn to during extreme weather events or other periods of record demand, we’re jeopardizing the competitiveness of our region and putting the State’s vital climate goals at risk.

That’s why the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, which represents the innovation economy and its ecosystem, is joining with key business and clean energy stakeholders in support of the Lights On California initiative. Together, we’re advocating for solutions that will enable California to plan for the long-term and overcome challenges to scaling the clean energy supply we need now to realize priorities like transportation electrification and powering the data centers that are the backbone of cloud-based industries.
