This summer, Walnut Creek residents can receive a no-cost energy and water conservation service from Rising Sun Energy Center, thanks to partnerships with Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), the City of Walnut Creek, East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD), and Contra Costa Water District (CCWD). Since 2000, Rising Sun Energy Center has provided no-cost energy and water conservation services to over 33,700 residents throughout the Bay Area and Central Valley. CYES provides local jobs for local youth by training and employing young adults ages 15 to 22 as Energy Specialists, providing their community’s residents with Green House Calls (GHC).
At your GHC, Energy Specialists:
- perform an energy- and water-efficiency assessment,
- install energy-efficient light bulbs
- install water-efficient devices for showers, faucets, and toilets,
- perform a toilet leak detection test,
- perform a basic solar assessment,
- provide e-waste pick-up and disposal, and
- offer tips on recycling and energy and water conservation to save money on utility bills—all at no cost to residents.
Renters and owners of all income levels are eligible.
