"San Jose Clean Energy, which has been sponsoring Christmas in the Park for six years, decided to give Santa's house an upgrade including a solar panel and "Elf Battery Storage" unit that powers the electric fireplace, a smart thermostat, all the lights in the hut and the sleigh plug-in. And if Santa's coal-free at his little San Jose pied-à-terre, I'm guessing the stockings of kids on the naughty list might be safe this year too."
"Santa Claus has a new ride on display at Christmas in the Park this year, a plug-in sleigh that's parked right next to his all-electric house. San Jose Clean Energy, which has been sponsoring Christmas in the Park for six years, decided to give Santa's house an upgrade including a solar panel"
Santa Claus appears at Christmas in the Park with a plug-in sleigh parked beside an all-electric house. San Jose Clean Energy installed a solar panel and an "Elf Battery Storage" unit that runs an electric fireplace, a smart thermostat, all hut lights and the sleigh plug-in. The 65-foot community tree and other decorated trees use energy-efficient LEDs. City officials present the renewable-powered display as part of a push toward carbon neutrality by 2030. Christmas in the Park is free, draws large crowds, and runs daily noon to 10 p.m. through Jan. 1 with online information available.
