Sothern California Tops in Energy Efficiency.
SoCal Edison customers won plaudits in a national survey of consumer energy efficiency. According to the survey, SCE customers achieved the highest reduction in greenhouse gas emissions through energy-efficiency programs of any area nationwide.
SoCal Edison reported that total customer response to its energy-efficiency programs over the past five years has saved four billion kilowatt-hours, enough energy to power 500,000 homes for an entire year. Saving that much energy also reduced greenhouse gas emissions by more than two million tons, the equivalent of removing 250,000 cars from the road. During the next two years, SCE forecasts its customers will save an additional two billion KW hours, which will reduce emissions by another one million tons.
The EPA has recognized SoCal Edison's achievements, most recently by naming it an Energy Star Partner of the Year for 2007. This is the sixth time SCE has received an EPA and DOE award for the effectiveness of its energy-efficiency programs.
