The Energy Commissioner Electrifying California
David Hochschild
David Hochschild chairs the California Energy Commission, the agency steering energy policy for the world's fourth-largest economy. Under his leadership, California has retired coal, surged past 70% clean electricity, put 2.5 million EVs on the road, and built more public charging plugs than gas nozzles. He's the rare government voice arguing (with the data to back it up!) that the clean energy future isn't coming. It's already here.
