๐ŸŒก๏ธโ˜€๏ธ A hot weekend is ahead! As temperatures rise, so do electric bills and demand on the grid. Here are a few ways you can help manage energy use and save on your electric bill:

โ€ข Raise your thermostat a few degrees when possible.
โ€ข Keep blinds and curtains closed during the day.
โ€ข Use fans to circulate cool air.
โ€ข Cook with smaller appliances when possible.
โ€ข Avoid running large appliances during peak hours. Demand on the electric grid is highest during these hours (3 p.m. to 6 p.m.)

Small adjustments can make a big difference. Stay cool, stay hydrated and have a safe weekend!

Keeping the lights on takes a team, and right-of-way professionals are an important part of that effort. By clearing vegetation around power lines and maintaining clear access to our electric system, they help support safe, reliable service for our members.

During Right-of-Way Professionals Week, Newberry Electric Cooperative thanks these dedicated professionals for all they do to help keep our communities connected and powered. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿค
