For seven weeks each summer, Rising Sun - Center for Opportunity employs youth age 15 to 22 and trains them to serve communities across the Bay Area with free 'green house calls'. At each green house call they check the home for efficiency, install free energy and water-saving equipment, and provide personalized recommendations for further savings. The program is free and no income qualification required. Only available for those living in single family homes and multi-family units.
When you sign up for a Green House Call, energy assistants will assess your home’s current energy and water usage, install energy and water efficient measures, and provide you with resources to other energy and water programs in your area. As mentioned earlier, the entire service comes to you at No-Cost!

- Home energy and water efficiency assessment
