Warmer weather is already here, which means our air conditioners are heating up too to keep us cool. As the heat rises, so too, do our energy bills. Cathedral City residents now have an opportunity to save energy and earn extra money with OhmConnect.
As an electrical customer of Southern California Edison (SCE), you can enroll in a program call OhmConnect which will provide you with either a 99₵ smart thermostat or 2 smart electrical plugs. When the electrical grid gets overwhelmed, usually between the hours of 5 pm and 9 pm on excessive heat days, they will send you an alert to power down some of your appliances to save energy. When you use less energy than you normal would, OhmConnect will reward you with cash or prizes. How can they afford to do that? SCE pays OhmConnect when their clients use less energy when the electrical grid is stressed. By reducing your power usage, SCE doesn’t have to start-up a peaker plant that is often more polluting and costly to run.
