Saratoga has been awarded a $493,000 grant from Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE), part of a larger $3.4 million initiative to support clean energy projects in six communities. The funding will facilitate the transition from natural gas to all-electric systems in local buildings, including the Civic Theater and Community Center. City Councilmember Tina Walia emphasized that these projects not only aim to reduce emissions but also serve as a model for sustainability while inspiring the community through visible enhancements and education on clean energy solutions.
Working with SVCE, we're not just reducing emissions; we're building a model for sustainability that other cities can look to. This will inspire early interest in clean energy.
These grants will help continue the momentum to build a clean energy future led by local action, especially as funding is cut at the federal level.
