EBCE has a free induction cooktop loaner program for residents in its service area—Alameda County and the City of Tracy. “Our theory is that demystifying a technology that is unfamiliar to many will help to overcome the perception that it is inferior to gas cooking,” Menten said. “In addition, we provide several virtual and hands-on workshops and demonstrations, mostly administered by our partner on this program, Acterra.”
