Annual Report for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2015

WE HAVE
THE POWER
We own and operate the Hetch Hetchy Power System,
our clean energy backbone and the source of power
for all of San Francisco’s municipal facilities, which
include streetlights, schools, hospitals, SFO, Muni, police,
fire and more. This year, we accomplished a major
milestone with the first kilowatt hours of clean, Hetch
Hetchy energy delivered to residents in The Shipyard.
We have increased generation of clean power while
reducing energy consumption through our efficiency
projects, resulting in 44,450 tons of carbon reduction
or the equivalent of 34,310 cars taken off the road.
Power Highlights:
• LED Streetlight Upgrades: Efficient, cost-effective
LEDs are now illuminating parts of our City. We will
be converting over 18,000 streetlights to LEDs. Like
all of our city-owned streetlights, they’re powered
by 100% Hetch Hetchy hydroelectric energy.
• Energy Efficiency: We completed seven energy
efficiency projects in city-owned buildings, like City Hall,
the oldest building in the US to receive LEED Platinum
certification. This saves us energy and money.
• Solar Arrays: We’ve installed three new municipal
solar arrays at North Beach Public Library, Thurgood
Marshall High School and City Hall, bringing the total
to 19 arrays for the City.
• GoSolarSF: We offer incentives for you to install
solar on your residence or commercial building.
Join existing participants in lowering your electric
bill while reducing air pollution.
