SAN FRANCISCO – CleanPowerSF is marking its 10-year anniversary by launching new bill credits to help residents switch to clean, electric home appliances and lower their energy bills.

CleanPowerSF is San Francisco’s community clean electricity program, run by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) and serving customers since 2016. It currently powers more than 385,000 homes and businesses.

Students are charging up their creativity to participate in the first ever CleanPowerSF Climate and Clean Energy High School Video and Writing Contest. CleanPowerSF is celebrating 10 years of providing clean energy to San Francisco, and as part of the anniversary, the team is inviting young creators to share their vision for a brighter future.

The electrical grid that we know today might not be possible without Edith Clarke. The first female electrical engineering professor in the US, she invented the Clarke calculator, a graphing calculator that enabled engineers to solve equations involving electric current, voltage, and impedance 10 times faster than by hand.
