How to Read Your Bill

Stay Cool while Keeping Energy Costs down
Most customers are on a Time-of-Use plan where pricing is higher from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. On our most popular plan, TOU-DR1, the lowest priced energy is during the super off-peak hours of 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. on the weekdays and before 2 p.m. on weekends and holidays.
Power Down
Switch off your electronic devices, such as computers and coffee pots, when not in use. Keep in mind, electronics in standby mode still draw power. Use a power strip to power down devices and appliances at one time.
Precool Your Home before 4 p.m.
Take advantage of lower priced energy by setting your A/C between 68⁰ and 74⁰ F before 4 p.m. During on-peak hours of 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., adjust your thermostat to 78⁰, health permitting.
Check Your Pricing Plan Options
Being on the right energy plan for your lifestyle can add up to real savings on your energy bill, especially if you can shift your energy use.
