Beat The Peak ALERT

URGENT “BEAT THE PEAK”


7 P.M. to 9 P.M., This Evening, April 15


Because of the colder than normal temperatures forecasted in our region, between the hours of 7 P.M. and 9 P.M. this evening, April 15 we are asking you to delay the usage of all unnecessary lights or appliances during these hours as well as turning your thermostat down 3 degrees.


While the largest consumers of electricity in the home during these hours and during this time of year are heating costs and lighting, other large consumers of electricity include major appliances such as dishwashers, washing machines, clothes dryers, hot water heaters and stoves.



By delaying the use of unnecessary lighting and appliances as well as reducing your thermostat 3 degrees between 7 P.M. and 9 P.M. this evening, April 15, we can save energy resources, avoid high cost energy and help the environment.



We thank you for your help. Together we can “Beat The Peak”
