Advancing the American Dream for California's communities and businesses

July 28, 2026

California’s energy and innovation are unmatched. For more than 135 years, from the Bay Area to the Central Valley to Southern California, we’ve been fueling opportunity across the Golden State. By supporting local companies, customers and communities, we’re helping make the American Dream more attainable for Californians.

Across California, we’re investing in:

Industries critical to national economic security and resiliency

Through our Security and Resiliency Initiative—a $1.5 trillion, 10-year plan to invest in innovation, growth, and strategic manufacturing, including in California.
