Silicon Valley Clean Energy Integrated Resource Plan 2026-2045
The 2026 Integrated Resource Plan for Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) outlines a comprehensive strategy to meet greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals, ensure affordability, and maintain system reliability over the long term. The plan focuses on achieving 75% Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) by 2030 and 100% by 2035, alongside maintaining 100% annual clean energy. Key strategic pillars include diverse resource procurement, such as solar photovoltaics with paired storage, wind, geothermal, and long-duration storage, as well as promoting economy-wide decarbonization through electrification and demand flexibility. The plan presents a Preferred Conforming Portfolio, reflecting current board targets, and an Alternate Conforming Portfolio, assessing a minimum compliance product scenario, with an outlook extending through 2045.
