Our goal is to save 10 million kilowatt-hours of energy. But what does saving 10 million kilowatt-hours mean?

A kilowatt-hour, or kWh, is a measurement of energy that describes the electricity used (1,000 watts) over a length of time (one hour).

In other words, 10 million kilowatt-hours is a LOT of energy!

Saving that amount of energy is equivalent to:

### Planting over 117,000 TREES*

### Taking over 1,500 CARS off the road for an entire year*

### Conserving the electricity from over 1,200 HOMES for an entire year*

Here you can see your school’s current number of Energy Kit requests and how much energy has been saved as a result, measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). Numbers are updated by Friday of each week.

Once you see your school’s numbers, use the calculator slide below to translate those saved kWh into real-world energy equivalencies.
