The legislature sent the bill to Governor Jerry Brown, who is expected to sign it into law later this month. Brown, who took office in January for a fourth term, has supported a higher renewable portfolio standard.
The Clean Energy and Reduction Act would also require a 50% increase in energy efficiency in buildings by the end of 2030.
Most of the Assembly’s Republicans voted against the bill, arguing that it would raise energy prices that are already among the highest in the US.
