Power Down 4-9 PM

​​​​​​​By making a few small changes to your routine, you can help create a small change for California. It’s as simple as shifting when you use energy.

Recharge While You Sleep

​​​​​​​Recharge your devices while you do the same, so when you wake up your devices are fully charged with more natural energy available.

Ready. Set. Go.​​​​​​​

By setting your thermostat to 68 degree or lower from 4-9 pm in cooler months, you’ll join fellow Californians in saving money and reducing your pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
