Californians for Energy & Science

Californians for Energy and Science is a nonprofit focused on researching the net costs and benefits of energy produced in California versus energy produced outside of the state. Our membership is comprised of scientists, engineers, environmental leaders, and people concerned with energy policy in California. Membership is free and open to all people of California (and outside California) that seek to participate in collaborative studies to identify the efficient governance of California’s energy systems.

We are conducting an air monitoring study to identify the potential impact(s) of oil and gas operations subject to 3200’ setbacks under SB 1137. This air monitoring study is currently in the data collection phase across several oil and gas leases in California. Future studies in 2024 will evaluate the economic impact of outsourcing California’s energy production and evaluation of marine ecosystems and port pollution related to oil tankers.
