From James Collins: Community Educator:
"Know When to Power Down"
Did you know that when you use electricity matters just as much as how much
you use? From 4-9pm there is extra strain on the power grid, meaning more
energy comes from non-renewable sources. By moving energy use outside of
those times, you can reduce your energy bill and use cleaner energy sources!
For information please reach out to James Collins, 'Time of Use' Community
Educator, with California Council of the Blind, at (916) 441-2100 or via
email at James.Collins@CCBnet.org
Thank you for reading.
