“Today’s clean energy ‘state report cards’ clearly illustrate that California’s green policies, its visionary leadership and commitment to innovation are fueling the growth of an economic sector that will continue to play a pivotal role in the creation of jobs and the protection of the environment here and elsewhere. It is abundantly clear that when California leads, great things happen.”
