Our collaboration with the City of Chula Vista seeks to increase both awareness of and participation in energy efficiency efforts in the community. These family-focused events provide participants with the opportunity to learn about smart energy management, hear about the City’s energy projects and upgrades, and discover ways to save energy at home. For information about upcoming events, contact Ella Grossberg at EGrossberg@energycoaltion.org or (858) 208-7014. [Back to Top] The mission of Kilowatts Count is to generate sustained energy savings at each participating school. Under the guidance of a Green Coordinator, youth energy leaders examine energy use at their schools, determine areas of energy waste, pledge to reduce electric utility usage by 10%, design and implement an energy saving program that includes taking action to reduce energy use at school and educating community members. For more information about the program, contact Ella Grossberg at EGrossberg@energycoalition.org or (858) 208-7014. [Back to Top]
Energy Saving Adventures at San Diego County’s Department of Parks and Recreation’s Lakeside and Spring Valley Community Centers
Students are welcome to visit the centers after school for a period of four hours. During this time, students explore why saving energy is important and are engaged in a variety of afterschool activities that have an environmental theme. The centers provide students with a safe environment reminiscent of a living room setting where they can explore energy topics through hands-on activities in small groups.
