Note
All of the listed renewable energy sources wind, solar, and geothermal are significant along the Pacific Coast, contributing to the region's diverse renewable energy portfolio.
The Pacific Coast states, especially California, Oregon, and Washington, have abundant natural resources that support a variety of renewable energy sources:
Wind energy: The region has numerous wind farms, particularly along the coastline and in mountain passes, where wind conditions are ideal.
Solar energy: With its sunny climate, especially in California's deserts, solar power is widely harnessed through large-scale solar farms.
Geothermal energy: California leads the U.S. in geothermal energy production, with several geothermal plants, especially in areas like The Geysers in Northern California. Together, these renewable resources make the Pacific Coast a leader in sustainable energy production.
