It's the first I've heard of it... guessing London isn't participating then!
This might be something to do with it!

BBC News story
Google are sponsoring it and have turned their home page black for the uk!
bbc website said:
The initiative began in Sydney last year when an estimated two million residents took part, cutting energy usage by more than 10% for the hour.
Does this not show how futile the whole thing is that when 2 million people in a city of 4.2 million turn off the lights it only cuts electricity usage by 10%

Ken Livingston wouldn't participate in anything unless it made money (allegedly)! He could try taxing people who put their lights on.
