The Go Solar California! campaign is a joint effort of the California Energy Commission and the California Public Utilities Commission providing rebates to utility customers who install solar thermal (solar hot water
heating) systems to replace water-heating systems powered by electricity or natural gas.
The assignment was to build awareness and understanding of the CSI-Thermal program to help motivate California residents and businesses to install solar water heating systems. We also looked to educate consumers and business decision-makers about the advantages and availability of CSI-Thermal program rebates.
Our communication pieces were developed around a campaign theme inspiring our target audiences to �Take the Next Step in Your Green Routine.� This theme taps into the mindset of our target audiences who are already environmentally conscious. They believe making energy-efficiency upgrades is important and that it�s the right thing to do. They have the means to take action, but solar water heating isn�t on their radar due to a lack of awareness and understanding.
We launched the campaign during Earth Week and capitalized on an integrated sponsorship program �Green Is Universal� that runs across NBC stations and websites in San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego. We also used a mix of online media (residential and business), including pre-roll videos and Pandora online radio, expanding our reach to both computers and iPads as well as paid search.
