Information for renters

Here are some questions to ask your landlord when you move in.

• Will the electricity be on when I get there or do I need to start service?
• Do I need to put service in my name?
• Who’s in charge of paying the bill?
• Who pays for air conditioning?
• What kind of heating system does my house or apartment have? Furnace, boiler, baseboard?

Once you set up My Account, you can easily grant another person access to your account, like a roommate, spouse or parent.

Step-by-step instructions on adding a guest user and updating other information within My Account can be found here.

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.
