What Is Watt Watchers?

Watt Watchers of Texas is a FREE energy efficciency program for Texas schools sponsored by the Texas State Energy Conservation Office/ Comptroller of Public Accounts and the Department of Energy. The program is designed for K-12 classrooms, and it is so simple! Basically, students patrol the halls of the schools reducing energy waste by turning off lights and leaving tickets for those that leave their lights on while no one is in the room. By doing this, a school could save $50+ per classroom. That’s right, it costs $50 per year to light an empty classroom for two hours each school day. But it does not stop at lights. Watt Watchers promotes energy efficiency though computers, thermostats, windows, hvac, solar power and many more.

How can ESA Help?

ESA can help integrate this program into your campus in a number of ways. Through our Watt Watchers experience, we have seen not only monetary and energy savings, but more importantly we have seen students, teachers, principals, and parents promote energy efficiency outside the campus. Promoting Watt Watchers not only promotes Energy Efficiency through turning off lights, it also promotes energy consciousness through the following ways:

• Solar Power
• Sleep Is Good
• Light Patrols
• windows
• doors
• appliances
• and many more
