October is Energy Action Month, an event meant to encourage energy savings through efficiency and conservation.
SC Energy Hour
Each year, a growing network of advocates, companies, government agencies, utilities, and others showcase the benefits of energy efficiency during the nationwide Energy Efficiency Day. campaign. As part of Energy Efficiency Day, the Energy Office encourages public and private entities to take part in SC Energy Hour! The Energy Office would like for South Carolinians to celebrate SC Energy Hour by actively reducing energy consumption or learning more about how to reduce energy use in the state. This celebration can range from turning off lights in your home or building, to hosting a virtual talk about energy-saving benefits. Other ideas for #SCEnergyHour are:
- Sign an Energy Action Month Pledge (PDF)

To help promote SC Energy Hour, take a photo of what you or your organization is doing and share via social media with the hashtag #SCEnergyHour.
