Federal legislation extends Daylight Saving Time several weeks in the spring and one week in the fall. For 2013, Daylight Saving Time starts on the second Sunday in March (March 10) and ends on the first Sunday in November (November 3).
So that you’re billed the appropriate rates for energy usage during the additional weeks of Daylight Saving Time, the time periods for electric time-of-use rates will begin and end one hour later.
If you’re on a time-of-use rate schedule, you need to be aware of the change to the time periods during the additional weeks of Daylight Saving Time so you can adjust your energy use accordingly.
