PG&E presented alternative energy options for consumers, including lighting, as well as a demonstration that shows exactly what happens when fuse blowouts occur. The Amador Tuolumne Community Action Agency, or ATCAA, presented information that included reduced cost energy programs, blankets, and other money saving devices and ideas. Prospect Motors featured an exhibit showcasing hybrid and ethanol vehicles which highlight GM’s growing line of FlexFuel vehicles that can run on either gasoline of corn-based E85 ethanol.
