How much nuclear energy does California energy use?
Six. Four of them are decommissioned and not producing power:
* Vallecitos Nuclear Power Plant (Pleasanton) - decommissioned in 1967. The plant is in SAFSTOR mode and all nuclear fuel has been removed from the site. Owned by Pacific Gas & Electric and General Electric (PG&E/GE).
* Humboldt Bay Nuclear Power Plant (Eureka) - decommissioned in 1976 because a seismic retrofit was prohibitively expensive and could not be justified. The plant is in SAFSTOR mode but still has nuclear fuel rods in water pools on site. It is scheduled for dismantling (DECON) in 2015. Owned by Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E)
* Santa Susana Sodium Nuclear Power Experimental (Ventura County) - damaged in a partial core meltdown accident in 1959 and subsequently dismantled by DECON protocol in 1964. This was an experimental reactor design that used sodium instead of water to cool the reactor. Owned by Southern California Edison (SCE).
* Rancho Seco Nuclear Power Plant (Sacramento area) - closed down in 1989 as a result of public referendum. DECON dismantling scheduled to begin in 2008. Owned by Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD).

* San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS, between LA and San Diego) - owned and operated by San Diego Gas & Electric (PG&E)
* Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant (San Luis Obispo) - owned and operated by Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E).
SAFSTOR:
A method of decommissioning in which a nuclear facility is placed and maintained in a condition that allows the facility to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated (deferred decontamination) to levels that permit release for unrestricted use. Often considered "delayed DECON," a nuclear facility is maintained and monitored in a condition that allows the radioactivity to decay; afterward, it is dismantled.
DECON:
Under DECON (immediate dismantlement), soon after the nuclear facility closes, equipment, structures, and portions of the facility containing radioactive contaminants are removed or decontaminated to a level that permits release of the property and termination of the NRC license.

Why and how does California look this way?
what way?
If you are referring to the way that the coast looks from afar there are theorists that believe that all the continents were one large land mass a few hundred million years ago. Over time these continents broke apart from each other. Due to this and the expansion and deterioration of different coast lines leaves us the way land looks the way it does today.
