The April 10, 2025, meeting of the San Diego Community Power (SDCP) Community Advisory Committee focused on several key initiatives aimed at enhancing community sustainability and energy efficiency.

The meeting began with a report on the successful completion of a solar and storage installation project at Olivewood Gardens and Learning Center. This project was funded through a grant from the Hammond Climate Solution Foundation, awarded last year in collaboration with the San Diego Foundation and Calpine Energy. The completion of this installation marks a significant step in promoting renewable energy solutions within the community.

Following this update, committee members discussed the implications of the project for local environmental initiatives and community engagement. The successful implementation of solar energy at Olivewood Gardens serves as a model for future projects aimed at increasing energy independence and sustainability in San Diego County.

The meeting concluded with a call for further community involvement in upcoming projects and initiatives, emphasizing the importance of collaboration in achieving energy goals. The committee plans to continue monitoring the impact of the Olivewood Gardens project and explore additional opportunities for community grants and partnerships in the future.
