Consider the Time-of-Use electric rate if less than 35% of your electric use takes place during peak-use hours. In this case, your business will likely save money. Keep in mind that your savings can continue to grow as you shift the operation of equipment and other electric-intensive processes to off-peak hours.
When you’re ready to start saving, sign up online. We will replace your existing meter with a special meter that measures the electricity you use during Time-of-Use savings hours and peak-use hours.
