Many of our homes, buildings and other facilities are old, inefficient and costly to operate and maintain.
They waste too much electricity, making our bills much higher than necessary. Unless we take action now, we will need to build more and costlier electricity generation plants and transmission lines just to meet our increased need.

 
Upgrade your heating.
Starting April 21, 2010, rebates became available for qualifying residential high-efficiency non-electric ENERGY STAR-qualified water heaters, furnaces and boilers. Learn more!
 

But it doesn't have to be that way.
Saving energy, not wasting it, is the best and lowest-cost way to meet our future demand for electricity and the best way families and businesses can save money. It's also the single most important action you can take to stop pollution.

Until now, though, much of the technology and information about how to waste less money and use energy more wisely was beyond the reach of most families and small businesses. But thanks to the Energy Savings Law (Act 129) passed in late 2008, Pennsylvania's electricity companies are now required to offer programs free of charge to customers of all types -- residential, commercial, non-profit/government, schools and industrial -- that will help them reduce their electricity use through energy efficiency.

Through these energy savings programs, you can cut your electricity bill from 10 - 15 - 20 -- up to 60 percent! So start saving now by clicking on your customer type.
