Saving through the Seasons with TOU

You may be pondering the questions; with Time of Use rates how can I still save on my electricity bill? Is there a way to still save? The answer is, YES!

Take advantage of the lower-priced (off-peak) time periods by shifting your energy use away from peak hours or avoid running large appliances and air conditioning during higher-priced (on-peak) periods. The less energy you use during peak hours, the more you will save. See below how you can take advantage of the off-peak rates!

If you are able to manage your energy habits, one of the Time-Of-Use plans may be the best fit for your home. Rates on a TOU plan are based on the time of day and the season. With TOU rate plans, prices change between the longer winter period (October-May) and shorter summer period (June-September). As a result of these seasonal pricing differences, it is likely that on a TOU rate plan, your winter bills will be lower than you are used to, while your summer bills will be higher. Still, overall annual energy costs can be lower! The new TOU 4-9PM and 5-8PM plans offer low prices while the sun is shining and solar power is contributing to the power grid.
