Well, I was gonna ask you about the mobile home parks because it's definitely something we haven't really talked about.
But we do have at least five mobile home parks and I'm sure that other communities in Silicon Valley, Clean Energy's territory have a number of them as well.
So something to kind of take back to the board and, you know, Jen.
I am the rep at the moment and Chris Clark is the alternate.
So we are glad to answer any questions people have privately and talk about things.
I have to say, serving on this board has been a great pleasure, but it's also really been a technical challenge.
I was just surprised, I mean, very surprised at how long it took to kind of feel like I knew enough to
not be embarrassed by the questions I was asking.
But I found out from talking to my fellow board members that everybody has the same experience.
It wasn't just me.
Most of us don't know very much about the power business, is the honest truth.
And that's what Silicon Valley Clean Energy is about.
Anyway, I digress.
I wanted to ask you about what you feel kind of gets the most bang for the buck in decarbonization at the moment.
And just to give my colleagues kind of an understanding of the order of magnitude of how important this is, we heard in a public comment
at a meeting that essentially the average heat pump water heater and the average family gas car produce the same amount of greenhouse gas emissions.
So it's not a minor thing
in terms of decarbonization to get a heat pump.
It's like taking a, you know, it's like getting rid of a gasoline car.
And will you tell us a little bit about that program we have?
