SB 772:

Expensive and Environmentally Damaging Energy

Forces California utilities to pay billions of dollars for an energy project that they don't need. This narrowly applies to one project without naming it- the Eagle Crest pumped-storage hydropower plant, which has failed to secure a contract and if built, would devastate the surrounding ecosystems, including in Joshua Tree National Park.

About California Environmental Voters

California Environmental Voters (formerly the California League of Conservation Voters) believes the climate crisis is here and this moment requires transformative change. California has the policy solutions to stop climate change but lacks the political will to do it at the rate and scale that’s necessary. EnviroVoters exists to build the political power to solve the climate crisis, advance justice, and create a roadmap for global action. We organize voters, elect and train candidates, and hold lawmakers accountable for bold policy change. We won’t stop until we have resilient, healthy, thriving communities, and a democracy and economy that is just and sustainable for all.
