Feb. 5, 2026 (La Mesa) -- With San Diego County residents navigating some of the highest utility rates in the nation, learning about ways to save is becoming increasingly important.
 
With that in mind, a Home Energy Fair is coming starting at 10 a.m., Saturday, March 7, at the La Mesa Library. The four-hour fair will offer residents a direct line to energy experts and ways to find financial relief.
 
The event comes at a critical time.
 
According to EnergySage, San Diego County residents pay an average of 39 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh) -- 98% higher than the national average. With the typical local household bill around $360 per month, the Fair will share ways to bridge the gap between rising costs and available solutions.
