List of power stations in California
This is a list of power stations in the U.S. state of California that are used for utility-scale electricity generation. This includes baseload, peaking, and energy storage power stations, but does not include large backup generators. 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.[1]:1
In 2018, California had a total summer capacity of 75,926 MW through all of its power plants, and a net energy generation of 195,265 GWh.[2] Its electricity production was the third largest in the nation behind Texas and Florida. California ranks first in the nation as a producer of solar, geothermal, and biomass resources.[3] Utility-scale solar photovoltaic and thermal sources together generated 13.8% of electricity in 2018. Small-scale solar including customer-owned PV panels delivered an additional net 12,919 GWh to California's electrical grid, equal to about half the generation by the state's utility-scale facilities.[4]
The Diablo Canyon Power Plant in San Luis Obispo County is the largest power station in California with a nameplate capacity of 2,256 MW and an annual generation of 18,214 GWh in 2018.[5] The largest under construction is the Westlands Solar Park in Kings County, which will generate 2,000 MW when completed in 2025.[6][7]
Battery storage
This is a list of operational battery storage power stations in California with a nameplate capacity of at least 10 megawatts.

Power plant operator AES Corp. said Monday it had closed on a sale of the land to real estate developer Leo Pustilnikov, in a deal that requires the company to stop operating the gas-burning generators by 2023. ... [As of 2020]: If AES is allowed to keep generating and selling electricity for three more years, the company will transfer $14 million to Pustilnikov for environmental cleanup — compared to just $6.5 million with a two-year extension, and $1.5 million with after a single year. Similarly, Pustilnikov has agreed to preserve up to 25 acres as permanent open space — but only with a three-year extension for AES. With a two-year extension his commitment falls to 12 acres of open space, and with a single year it falls to four acres.
