STATEWIDE MARKETING AND OUTREACH
PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS
2004 2005 STATEWIDE MARKETING AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS
Efficiency Partnership (McGuire and Company, PG&E, SCE, SDG&E & SCG)
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
This partnership program with the utilities and managed by EP provides marketing and education programs that capitalize on the "Flex Your Power" campaign through TV, newspaper, radio and targeting English and Asian-speaking consumers. Additionally, this program promotes energy efficiency through printed educational materials; events; a website; a biweekly electronic newsletter; planning forums; and crucial partnerships with businesses, government and nonprofit organizations. The campaign coordinates with IOUs, municipal utilities, water agencies, non-utility program providers, manufacturers, retailers of energy-efficient products, contractors and other energy efficiency service providers to provide a consistent statewide energy efficiency message and information.
PROGRAM MODIFICATIONS:
EP should clearly describe the specific roles and activities of PG&E, SCE, SDG&E and SoCalGas in the program implementation plan and identify the associated budgets for each respective utility's activities.
Additionally, EP should update and improve the "Flex Your Power" website to make it more user friendly. It should make more prominent the information about non-utility programs so that access to them is comparable to the access on information about utility programs. EP should coordinate with non-utility implementers for ways to represent their programs effectively at the website.
EP, RS&E and Univision should continue to coordinate their efforts with each other, with the utilities, and non-utilities energy efficiency program implementers for consistent, coherent and timely marketing and outreach.
EP should submit program implementation plan for Energy Division approval that details the above-mentioned activities, including timelines.
