Sign Up for Time-of-Use Rate

If you spend more time on the go than you do at home, your schedule may allow you to reap the benefits of the Time-of-Use rate.

This energy-saving program offers a lower electric rate for reduced electricity consumption between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. on weekdays from June 1 through September 15. Reducing energy usage during summer peak demand periods helps us control the high cost of producing electricity in the summer. The more off-peak electricity you use, the more you save.

If you are rarely home between 3 and 8 p.m. or are willing to avoid operating high-energy-use equipment like air conditioners and electric water heaters during peak hours, you'll receive a lower billing rate per kilowatt-hour.

To fully see the maximum benefits of Time-of-Use, we suggest you stay on the rate for at least 12 months. If the plan doesn't work for you, you can always revert back to the general rate. For more information, please contact your local district office or read the rate description online.
