Energy Management Programs
Energy management is energy conservation at work designed to save you money. It's a partnership between a utility and a consumer to reduce the amount of electricity used during times of high demand and higher energy prices. Our programs reduce peak demand, save participating members and the Cooperative money, and conserve electricity!
