In June 2025, SVCE co-hosted a ribbon-cutting with the City of Morgan Hill, celebrating the completion of the new all-electric Butterfield Fire Station. The Butterfield Fire Station will improve Morgan Hill's emergency response capabilities and public safety. The pollution and emission-free electric equipment will keep the station's air clean for first responders, and the cost-saving and resilient benefits of the solar and battery storage system make this station a significant achievement in advancing Morgan Hill's climate goals. The SVCE Community Grant Program contributed $500,000 to make the fire station the first all-electric facility in Morgan Hill.

Peninsula Clean Energy is celebrating San Mateo County passing reach codes, which require new buildings to be built all-electric. Reach codes are one of the most impactful actions cities can take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Twenty of our member jurisdictions passed reach codes, inspiring the state to incorporate key elements into its own building codes. That means cleaner air, safer buildings, and more EV charging opportunities for residents across California. Congratulations to our community!
