Turning off lights when you leave a room and powering down electronics when they’re not in use are simple habits that can add up to meaningful energy savings over time. Using power strips makes it easy to cut off “phantom” energy use from devices like TVs, printers, and computers, all with the flip of a switch.
Do you know that Yolo County has a Home Weatherization Program, which offers FREE home energy efficiency kits—including power strips—to eligible households? Visit www.YoloCounty.gov/Weatherization to see if you are eligible and apply!
Residents of West Sacramento can receive a power strip by requesting a free Energy Audit Kit online.
The City of Davis will be launching their own Weatherization Program, in partnership with the County's Sustainability Division, in Summer 2026.
