The initiative aims to enroll 300 new participants by April 2025, unlocking $15,000 in funding from PSE for a solar panel project on a community building, with the city matching this contribution. Currently, 2,903 Issaquah customers benefit from renewable energy for just $4 a month. The program promotes individual environmental responsibility and fosters community engagement in sustainability efforts.

Participants can request custom reports to showcase their impact, beneficial for businesses pursuing sustainability benchmarks. Overall, the Empower Issaquah challenge is a vital opportunity for residents to contribute to a cleaner energy future, and they are encouraged to share the challenge with friends and family to amplify their collective impact.
