There may be some imports of nuclear-sourced power from Arizona and Washington state.


That might be a possibility, but I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that it is actually pretty pathetic we have to import power to make up our energy needs at all.

When I last looked at the stats a few years ago we were importing about 30% of our power from other States and it was trending upwards.


The Californian regulatory environment is very costly. It is natural for power producers to build new capacity elsewhere.
