"California has set a new record for the amount of solar energy it generates
during the winter season. According to data from CalSO, the state reported
1,029 megawatts of solar energy being introduce into the California power grid.
Moreover, the state came close to generating more than 1 gigawatt of solar
energy on the Winter Solstice, which is the day when the state receives its
least amount of sunlight. While the new record pales in comparison to the sheer
amount of energy that the state needs, it does show that California continues
to make significant progress in its solar energy endeavors."
