Making a Difference

The programs and services offered by the SoCalREN have provided more than $4 million in rebates paid to homeowners for making energy efficiency upgrades.

The mission of SoCalREN is to harness the collective action of public agencies to save energy and lead their communities on the pathway to a safe, secure, resilient, affordable and sustainable energy future.

From helping a multifamily property owner make improvements to tenant units, to guiding cities through the process of upgrading street lighting to increase energy efficiency and safety, the services provided by the SoCalREN are making a difference in the community.

Through the design and implementation of programs that impact homes, businesses, and public facilities, the SoCalREN has helped reduce energy use throughout the region.

SoCalREN works across 12 counties with one common goal: achieving unprecedented levels of energy savings throughout Southern California by delivering programs and information to the communities, businesses, and 20 million people who call the area home.

Over its lifetime, efficient street lighting installed in the City of Long Beach with the assistance of the SoCalREN Public Agency Program will help save the city up to $15 Million in energy costs.

The SoCalREN’s Workforce Development Program helped nearly 350 students gain access to education through the Architecture Construction Engineering Students (ACES) program. ACES students earned more than $74,000 internship dollars during 2017.

Santa Monica residents are enjoying brighter, more efficient LED lighting at the Big Blue Bus facility and the Santa Monica Swim Center. These are just two of the projects the City completed with the assistance of the SoCalREN Public Agency Program.

Through the SoCalREN Multifamily Program, nearly 7,400 residential multifamily units have been improved with energy efficiency measures that help tenants save energy and enjoy a healthier indoor living environment.
