flag California met grid demand with renewables for parts of 40 days, but high electricity costs soar, affecting millions.

flag California claims its renewable energy surpassed grid demand on 40 out of 48 days, but this only applies to certain hours. flag The state still relies on natural gas, hydro, nuclear, and imported power to meet full-day demands. flag High electricity rates, rising by 83-118% over ten years, have left over 2.2 million customers behind on bills. flag The "fake market" created by mandates on utilities to purchase renewables, supported by subsidies, has led to costly and unreliable projects like the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System.
