The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission’s (SFPUC) Power Enterprise recently welcomed 16 San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) teachers for a presentation on the city’s clean energy efforts, including a walkthrough of the SFPUC’s solar installation at Davies Symphony Hall.

The group that advises the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission and the Board of Supervisors about plans, programming, and operations at the Southeast Community Center has a new name: the Southeast Community Center Council.

The Moscone Center hosts dozens of trade shows, conferences, and large events each year. It’s also home to San Francisco’s first district-scale onsite water reuse system. The system collects and treats rainwater and other onsite drainage from over 800,000 square feet of space. By reusing that water for non-drinking water uses, it saves precious drinking water for drinking. In just four years of operation, the project reached its target of reusing enough water to save at least 30 million gallons of drinking water. That’s the equivalent to filling 416 backyard swimming pools or meeting the yearly water needs of 514 San Francisco residents!

The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission’s (SFPUC) latest wastewater bond ratings will help keep sewer rates affordable over the long term.
