The California Energy Resource and Reliability Outlook is the California Energy Commission’s staff’s comprehensive, statewide assessment of electric, fossil gas, and petroleum resource planning and reliability. The report has a focus on the upcoming summer but also considers the midterm, spanning the next five years.
The intent of this California Energy Resource and Reliability Outlook is to provide a complete picture of planning and reliability throughout California for the period of 2026–2030, based on available data. In contrast to the 2025 report, this report provides more comprehensive analyses of energy resource planning issues, considerations, and trends.
