There is only one operational nuclear plant in California, and it only produces some 8-9% of the grid's power. Don't let's pretend that nuclear is the cornerstone of the grid here.

It should have been, but currently we are facing the results of decades of the feds and everyone else refusing to build any nuclear anywhere.

I hear they also are taking efforts to keep the plant open a little longer than they originally planned, despite it being close to some fault lines.
