Trish O'Hagan recently sent out information about The Green Energy Consumer Alliance and the option to sign up for email alerts when the demand for electricity spikes especially high and dirty peaker plants are used to meet the high demand, thereby causing more pollution and raising the year round electricity costs. I was surprised that the peak starts at 4pm, later than I had guessed, and that there are very few days when this alert is necessary. Today is one of them. Let's shave the peak by conserving energy between 4pm and 8pm today! Ursula

Let's do what we can to reduce that need! Conserve electricity from 4-8pm. - Turn the air conditioner up a few degrees, or off if you can manage. Pro tip: "Pre-cool" before peak time with AC, then use fans during peak time (they use far less electricity). - If you have a heat pump, don't turn it off. Just adjust the temperature by a few degrees. - Avoid running dishwasher, washer, or dryer. - Unplug electric vehicles or set their charging timers to start after 8pm. Download ISO-To-Go! You can experience peak in real time, and see the effect of solar, if you download our grid operator's cool ISO-To-Go app. <https://info.greenenergyconsumers.org/e3t/Ctc/IZ+113/c1GjT04/VWTFk58LYcZrW30RYHP1G3gbnW6cqVBw5hhLJzN8rPF5s3qgyTW7lCdLW6lZ3p-W65BTnl31WJKdW4Ps2sr1zPyqzW5lsph45Pjn9NM9NRr8v0Q90N4889Vr4c98CW1Nhw_G54VTKRW7h6Pjw3q-PscW26vlpc7Mn-K1W7zJryS3qChGKV1Y0xX3zBZhSW7SchC88SQLdXW9d1xkG1hNJklVngprJ2vR2dkW56PTlV7J7VFVW3KSmwK3dYFHRW3lrCJb8F6RNZW5s_QKs8B783KW8YY6l73D9fFXW6ZMqnr8Cp8vrW99HJC35nBGK-W8MH-kB70lGTTW910rJ156tQbNW8Wd-_T6b4lCfW3PY0RL9cGtrjf8GRwmF04> Your alerts information: Text: You do not receive text alerts.
