The Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) operates as a California Joint Action Agency, founded in 1968 by a coalition of locally owned electric utilities to jointly develop energy resources for affordable, reliable, and clean electric service. Its membership comprises municipalities, a rural electric cooperative, and other publicly owned entities, for which NCPA manages energy purchases, aggregation, scheduling, and energy management. The generation portfolio totals 796 megawatts, with roughly 55% of the mix considered emission-free, drawn from geothermal, hydroelectric, and natural gas resources. This composition supports member efforts to meet California's 2030 Renewables Portfolio Standard of 60%.

Based in Roseville, California, NCPA operates as a not-for-profit public entity governed by locally elected or appointed officials who serve as energy regulators for the member cities, towns, and districts. In October 2022, Jenelle Osborne, mayor of Lompoc, was appointed vice chair for 2022-2023 by the NCPA Board of Directors.
