The California Energy Commission is the State agency responsible for formulating energy policy in California. Since its creation in 1975, the Commission has set forth in its Biennial Report to the Governor and the Legislature those policies, goals, and priorities which govern the State's future energy and electricity needs. This paper will address geothermal energy policy of the State of California in the context of these overall state energy policy goals.
