[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I knew it was coming, but the rate increase really hurts. I looked at my account. I used the same amount of electricity last month as October 2023. My bill is almost $100 higher. What on earth can we do??[/quote] Do you have a smart thermostat? That's one idea such that you can program it to automatically alter the home temperature during the summer when the A/C is running (and similar in winter if you have electric heat) vs. having to remember to change the temperature all the time. I also had an old central A/C unit replaced and noticed my electric bill declined fairly significantly...however, it's hard to justify a $7500 - $10,000 investment just to save maybe $300 per year during the high usage summer months. In my case, my unit had broken and needed to be replaced and it was just interesting to notice the energy savings.[/quote]
