Watts Up San José
FEBRUARY 2024
HELP WITH YOUR ELECTRICITY BILL
San José Clean Energy is celebrating 5 years of serving the businesses and homes of our great City. We want you to know we’re here to help you save on your electric bill. The average SJCE residential customer is saving about 8% compared to PG&E bundled service. We’re also offering our hardest hit neighbors an additional 10% discount through our SJ Cares program. 

Check out our new bill comparison tool to see how much you’re saving with us.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE FEDERAL EV TAX CREDIT
Bought an EV in 2023? You may qualify for the federal Clean Vehicle Credit of up to $7,500 – be sure to consult with your tax expert! If you’re planning to purchase an EV in 2024, you should know that the Credit can now be transferred to the dealer at the point-of-sale, effectively reducing the cost of your clean vehicle upfront.
LOVE IS IN THE AIR - MINUS THE EMISSIONS
Meet the power couples of clean energy. Two of our staff members found love in a hopeful place on their way to careers in renewables. Hear about their love and career journeys. So cute it hertz.

Psst: Do you or someone you love share a passion for energy? We’re hiring! Match yourself to open positions in finance, programs, and more. 
CUT ENERGY AND COSTS THIS WINTER
We want to empower our customers with resources to make it easier to lower electricity use. A more energy efficient home means you save energy and money without sacrificing comfort:
  • Let natural sunlight in to naturally heat your home. Remember to close blinds and windows at night to better retain heat. 
  • Layer up and lower the temperature on your thermostat – just five degrees lower can save about 10% on your bill. 
  • Adjust your water heater a few degrees lower to save on your bill. Most people have the temperature set too high, so you may not even notice the difference. 
You may also be eligible for programs to help lower your energy bill each month.
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
Take our survey to help shape our programs to best meet your needs. The survey takes 5-10 minutes, and responses are confidential. Completed surveys will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a $25 gift card. Responses due this Friday, March 1st.
