Your Home Energy Report is another way we can help you save money and energy. In support of the EmPOWER Maryland Energy Efficiency Act, encouraging Marylanders to reduce their energy use, we’re providing you with a new tool to make saving money and energy simple.Several times throughout the year, you’ll receive a custom report that includes information based on how your home uses energy. Your report will share helpful information so you can find savings opportunities. The reports will also show you how your home uses energy and how it compares to similar homes in your area. The home comparison relates your current electricity use to approximately 100 nearby, occupied, Maryland homes. These homes are comparable to yours, but are not necessarily the homes in your neighborhood.You’ll also find tips on each report that are personalized for you based on your energy use and publicly available information about your home, such as the type of home and size. This way, you’ll have specific tips that you know will make a difference in your home.
We only use your information to provide useful insights about your energy use. Your individual energy usage information is compiled anonymously with that of other customers in order to provide comparative information.

What information is included in the Home Energy Report?
Home Energy Reports are designed to provide information to help you understand your home's energy use and find smart ways to make your home more efficient. Each report will provide you with information about your home's energy use, comparison of your monthly and annual usage and personalized tips to help you save money and energy.
You'll be able to compare your home's energy use to the energy use of similarly sized homes in your area and also see how your home's energy use changes over time and across seasons. In each report, you’ll learn ways to save energy, including information on rebates and other special programs we offer. To learn more about those programs, click here.
Are these tips the only ways I can save energy in my home?
Which households are included in the ‘household comparison’?
How did you choose the homes used in the household comparison?
Do the similar households account for all unique attributes of my home, such as the number of people living in my home or having a swimming pool?
How are similar households using so much less energy than me?
Will others see my household information in their household comparison?
The comparisons are compiled anonymously and kept confidential, which means other customers never know what homes are used nor do they see your energy usage data.
Protecting our customers' information is a top priority. We treat each customer's personal information and data as confidential, consistent with all regulatory requirements, including those established by the Maryland Public Service Commission. The similar household comparisons on your Home Energy Reports are made to an average of 100 similar homes in your area that have similar characteristics, which are based on publicly available information and do not include private information, such as number of occupants, and types of appliances in the home.
I have certain life or housing circumstances, such as energy-intensive medical equipment, that prevent me from reducing my energy use. So how can these reports help me?
It's understandable that some people may have life or housing circumstances that make it difficult to reduce their energy use. We aim to provide a wide range of ideas that can address the various needs of our customers and their homes. Beyond modifying the temperature in your home, these reports provide ideas for making your home more efficient and information about Pepco programs that can help customers improve their home’s energy efficiency. These programs can lead to energy savings without impacting comfort. In some cases, you may not be able to realize substantial savings, but we've found that most people can find at least some savings and we hope we can help you do so. We encourage you to find out which tips are best for you and search for more ideas. You can also find tips in our Helpful Ways to Save brochure.
