Data source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Electric Power Monthly
Note: Coal represents less than 1% each year.

Although natural gas generation still provides more electricity than any other source in California, electricity generation from natural gas has decreased over the past several years while generation from solar has increased.

According to data from our Electric Power Monthly, electricity generation from January through August 2025 (the latest data in our October release) was 140.9 billion kilowatthours (BkWh), 8% more than the same period in 2020.

The generation growth in recent years has been driven by solar. Solar generation by utility-scale power plants in California totaled 40.3 BkWh in the first eight months of 2025, nearly double the 22.0 BkWh over the same period in 2020. In the first eight months of

Data source: Enverus Drillinginfo
Note: For consistency, the various state pressure bases used to measure natural gas volumes have been converted to the federal pressure base of 14.73 pounds per square inch absolute (psia) and 60°F.

U.S. production of associated dissolved natural gas, also known as associated natural gas, increased by 6% last year, mirroring the growth in crude oil production from the Permian region. Associated natural gas production averaged 18.5 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2024, according to data from Enverus DrillingInfo.

Associated natural gas, which is natural gas produced by wells that predominantly produce oil, comes mainly from five major oil producing regions in the United States—the Permian, Bakken, Eagle Ford, Anadarko, and Niobrara. In 2024, associated natural gas production in these regions averaged 18.2 Bcf/d, an
