How PG&E Can Help You

Approximately half of the electricity PG&E delivers is carbon free, so we’re already helping to reduce your carbon footprint. But we all have room for improvement. And PG&E can help.

How PG&E Can Help

Consider the following steps to help reduce your impact on the environment:

Use Energy More Efficiently

Using energy more efficiently is climate-friendly and can save you money. PG&E offers rebates and incentives on energy efficient appliances to help you manage your energy costs, and a SmartEnergy Analyzer to discover opportunities for savings.

Consider Solar

Harness the power of the sun and power your home or business with clean, renewable energy. PG&E administers the California Solar Initiative, providing financial incentives to solar projects you choose to install.

Make Your Energy Use "Climate Neutral" Through ClimateSmart

Balance out the greenhouse gas emissions from your home or office energy use through ClimateSmart. By signing up, you can choose to pay a separate amount on your monthly PG&E bill, which will fund a variety of projects, including forest conservation and restoration in California, which will remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

Join PG&E as a Plug-In Partner

Join the Plug-In Partnership – a national, grassroots initiative that encourages automakers to produce 100+ mpg high-performance clean plug-in hybrid cars. You can also learn more and take action by making your next purchase a cleaner-burning compressed natural gas vehicle or, until plug-ins are commercially available, buying a standard 45+ mpg hybrid.
