Save Energy. Win Big.
Energy Blitz Challenge
The Energy Blitz Challenge was a huge success! Together we saved 105,796 kWh across 11 participating buildings over the three month challenge. That’s a $15,509 cost savings to the college and the greenhouse gas emissions equivalent of:
​
-
13 homes’ electricity use for one year
-
182,919 miles driven by an average passenger vehicle
-
81,788 pounds of coal burned
-
9,539,674 smartphones charged
To celebrate our success, we are throwing an Eco-Fair at LACC on Wednesday, May 15th from 12-2pm. Join us for prizes, food, performances and more!
How it Works
Earn Points
Earn Points
There are lots of ways to earn points for your team, from attending Energy Blitz events to taking pledges related to the weekly sustainability themes.
Remember that the biggest deciding factor in the competition is how much energy each building saves over the semester (compared to 2018's energy usage). So pay attention! Turn off lights and screens, unplug unused devices and come up with other creative ways to save.
​
Don't forget to report your energy-saving activities by filling out the Reporting Points Form.
Win Big
At the end of the semester, the winning Green Team will be announced at a campus-wide event.

A prize valued at $1000 will be awarded to the team that earns the most points, along with individual prizes for highest points earned and most creative energy-saving projects!
