They don't happen often. If you ever find yourself in the dark, here’s what to know:
Your smart meter reports power outages automatically, so you don’t have to. If you'd like to report your outage, however, you can do that on our outage map.
Your electricity bill is based on how much you use. Small changes can make a big difference.
Use LED light bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs. You could save as much as $75 a year. LEDs last a long time, so don’t forget to take them with you when you leave.
Buy a smart power strip to automatically power down devices that aren’t in use.
Lower your thermostat by 10 degrees if you’re going out of town for the weekend.
