Sacramento, the heart of California’s capital region, is poised to drive our state’s journey toward a clean, equitable, and electrified energy future. As a hub of innovation and policy-making, Sacramento is uniquely positioned to lead by example, ensuring that the transition to sustainable energy is inclusive and community-focused. Join us on October 24, 2024 to hear from utility leaders, city officials, state representatives, and industry pioneers who are at the forefront of California’s energy transition.

Sacramento’s Ambitious Energy Transition Goals
