January 2026 Silicon Valley Clean Energy Board Meeting
Follow-Up
Meeting Snapshot
At the January Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) Board of Directors (Board) meeting, the Board appointed new board leadership positions, authorized a contract to begin construction at SVCE’s new HQ, approved a new energy storage agreement, and supported the evolution of SVCE’s electric vehicle customer programs.
High-Level Item Summaries
1. SVCE Board appoints new Chair, Vice Chair, and Executive Committee The SVCE Board of Directors has elected new leadership. Larry Klein (Mayor of the City of Sunnyvale) will serve as the Chair of the Board and Sally Meadows (Mayor of the City of Los Altos) will serve as Vice Chair of the Board for 2026. The Board has also selected six members to serve on its 2026 Executive Committee.
2. Construction to begin at SVCE Office with a Contract for Interior Buildout The SVCE Board authorized a contract in the amount of $6,554,435 with Beals Martin and Associates Inc. for the interior buildout of SVCE’s new headquarters at 298 S.
Sunnyvale Avenue. This contract was awarded after a detailed competitive public process. SVCE continues to move through the permitting process with the City of Sunnyvale and the project is currently on schedule to be completed in time for a July 1st move-in date.
3. Board Approves Agreement for Advanced Compressed Air Energy Storage Project to Support Clean Energy Grid
SVCE will join a large group of energy providers committing to purchase energy from the Willow Rock Compressed Air Energy Storage project - a new 500-megawatt facility in Kern County that stores clean energy for up to eight hours using innovative compressed air technology. The project received final California Energy Commission permitting in December 2025 and is expected to begin operations around 2030. The facility will provide reliable electricity to the grid during evening hours when solar generation drops but demand remains high. SVCE’s expected share of the project is 5.7 megawatts.
4. Electric Vehicle (EV) Programs Evolve to Support Customer Needs The Board adopted a pair of changes to its transportation programs. The EV Rate Pilot Program will create a “Super-Off-Peak” period in the mid-day that will incentivize EV drivers to charge mid-day, when the cleanest electricity is produced, instead of overnight. The Board also approved reallocating $7.2 million to consolidate and expand three core programs: EV Charging Rebates, EV Charging Technical Assistance, EV Rebates and Education.
