From CCB Educator James Collins:
Power Saver Rewards is a free public program that gives you a credit on your energy bill when you reduce your energy use during a Flex Alert and help prevent a power outage. Flex Alerts generally occur during heatwaves when there’s a strain on the power grid as folks arrive home from school and work between 4:00 and 9:00 p.m. The best way to reduce energy use during a Flex Alert is to hold off on using major appliances, like the dishwasher, and turn your thermostat up to 78 degrees.
Get the whole family involved and remind everyone in your household to help keep energy use low during a Flex Alert. When you reduce energy use during a Flex Alert, you get a bill credit and help protect vulnerable community members from a power outage. Sign up today at PowerSaverRewards.org to start receiving credits.
