Smart meters provide additional benefits including:
You can access information about your energy use such as what days of the week and times of day you use the most energy. This can help you identify changes you can make to increase your energy efficiency.
You can also view your current and projected monthly bill which can help you maintain your budget and control your energy costs
With access to detailed data, smart meters give you the power to review and evaluate your energy use.
Smart meters provide us remote outage detection if an outage occurs
Our representatives are equipped to better answer your questions about your personal energy use, should you ever need to contact us for assistance.
Smart meters reduce the need for our meter readers to come to your home. New features enable remote meter reading
Remote meter reading reduces the number of vehicles and trucks we have on the roads, which in turn helps reduce carbon emissions
Smart meters are the key to greater energy efficiency, reducing the need to build power plants and decreasing use of older, less efficient power plants that typically have higher greenhouse gas and other air emissions
