Saving is Easy this Summer

What are Peak Savings Days?

Peak Savings Days are a few days each summer when demand for energy is highest, and they typically occur for a few hours between noon and 8:00 p.m. You can earn bill credits by using less energy during those peak hours. Learn more on Peak Energy Savings Credit.

And you don't even have to enroll, we'll notify you the night before a Peak Savings Day by phone or you can choose to be notified by text or email.

Five Ways to Save

On Peak Savings Days and during the summer months, the less energy you use the more money you could save on your electric bill. These tips will help you chill while saving money and energy:

• Reduce your A/C use, even just a few degrees makes a difference
• Fire up the outdoor grill, instead of cooking inside
• Save high energy chores, like laundry and dishes, for later
• Turn off lights and electronics, if you're not using them
• Close the shades, or blinds, to help keep your house cool​
