Get rewarded to automatically reduce your energy use
Connect a smart device, sit back and earn ongoing rewards.
For each eligible smart device you enroll in Smart Hours, you’ll earn an enrollment bonus plus additional incentives at the end of each heating or cooling season you participate. Smart Hours events take place when energy demand in your community peaks. During an event, we’ll automatically reduce your device’s energy use. We’ll give you a heads-up beforehand and you can opt out anytime. You can enroll a smart thermostat, an Aquanta water heater controller, a battery storage system and an electric vehicle or EV charger.
Once you connect your device, we’ll handle the rest with no effort on your part. You can just relax, earn rewards and help flatten the curve when energy demand spikes.
