Delaware Electric Cooperative "Peak Alert"

URGENT “BEAT THE PEAK”

7 A.M. to 9 A.M., Tomorrow Morning, April 13


Because of the colder than normal temperatures forecasted in our region, between the hours of 7 A.M. and 9 A.M. tomorrow morning, April 13 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 A.M. and 9 A.M. tomorrow morning, April 13, 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”
