Sempra Generation is working to provide clean power to North America. This includes operating one of the cleanest generating fleets in North America utilizing the latest in natural gas electrical generation technology. In addition, we are developing and exploring generating electricity from energy resources, such as solar energy and wind, instead of fossil fuels, such as coal and natural gas.

To learn more about clean, renewable energy, read the information below.

		Solar Sunlight lights up our lives and can power our homes. One way to harness the energy from the sun is through photovoltaic (PV) cells. These solar cells convert sunlight directly into electricity and are usually made from silicon alloys. More information...

		Wind Part of the answer to providing clean power isn’t just blowing in the wind…it IS the wind. When wind turns the blades of a wind turbine, it produces electricity. The bigger the wind turbine, the more electricity it produces. More information...

		Biomass Biomass is any recently living material made from plants and animals that can be used as fuel. This includes crops, wood, animal waste and some garbage. When burned, the chemical energy in biomass is released as heat. More information...

		Hydropower Flowing water creates energy that can be captured and turned into electricity, called hydroelectric power or hydropower. More information...

		Geothermal This renewable energy is generated at the earth's core, about 4,000 miles below the surface. One use of geothermal energy is to pipe hot water from springs near the earth’s surface directly into buildings for heat. More information...
