City Showcase – South Bay Cities and Schools Receive $1.1 Million to Increase Energy Efficiency
Recently 10 South Bay public agencies received a total of $1,109,500 from an incentive program to replace gas-powered water heaters with heat pump technology. Heat pump water heaters are fully electric and are 300% more energy efficient than gas-fired water heaters. Heat-pump technology uses hot exhaust air from other heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems to heat water.
