[quote=Anonymous]According to PEPCO's website, this program is still voluntary. We were a part of the Kilowatchers program, which was a similar program that they had, when we lived in a townhome. It was not unusual for the temperature to only cool to the mid 80's in our home on days when they 'cycled' -- that is the whole point, to save enough power from the people who sign up, in order to prevent a blackout (or so they say). If you are at work during the day, it wouldn't be bad, but if you are at home with kids as I was, it can get uncomfortable. When we moved to a single-family home, we did not sign up for the program. We don't have to cut corners as much as we used to, and felt that it was worth giving up the discount in order to know that we could cool to whatever temp. we wanted, when we wanted. Do you really think that PEPCO, of all companies, would be giving a discount unless it required a sacrifice from the customer? Get real!! [/quote]
