 Thank you! Your conservation efforts helped avoid rotating outages
This month we experienced a record-setting heat storm with temperatures exceeding 100 degrees over a large area for multiple days. This resulted in unprecedented electricity demand across the State of California. Residents and businesses responded together to Flex Alerts, and the resulting conservation allowed us to avoid rolling power outages.
By providing clean electricity, Peninsula Clean Energy is helping our community fight climate change and its effects like extreme heat.
