Step Up and Power Down is a partnership between Pacific Gas and Electric Company and the Cities of Redwood City and San Carlos, that is helping local residents take simple actions every day to reduce energy waste. These simple actions add up to make a big difference. Getting started is as easy as turning off room lights when you leave a room. Now imagine if every household in your community did that. That’s what Step Up and Power Down is all about.

Join us in supporting a more sustainable future and a better California. We really can change the world with the flip of a switch.
