Have a talent for coding? Want to create a mobile application to help your community and the environment? Join AT&T and San Diego Gas & Electric® for an Energy Awareness Hackathon to develop apps that will reduce energy use for San Diego and beyond.

This event is designed for attendees (technical & non-technical) to build apps/mobile apps, compete for prizes across different categories and most importantly: meet new people and scout for teammates to work on new or current projects.

In addition all apps must leverage Green Button Connect My Data to be eligible for prizes.
