Episode 03: California’s Clean Energy Blueprint for Equity and Innovation

In this episode, California’s Clean Energy Blueprint for Equity and Innovation, we are joined by California State Assemblymember Cottie Petrie-Norris, Chair of the Assembly’s Committee on Utilities and Energy. California has ambitious goals: lowering emissions by 40% from 1990 levels by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2045. As we transition to a low-carbon future, the urgency of the climate crisis requires balancing sustainability, reliability, and affordability. Assemblymember Petrie-Norris shares her four key priorities in her role, which include affordability, ensuring reliability, leveraging federal funds, and accelerating the pace of clean energy transition.
