Save Energy this Summer
Summer arrives on June 21. And as temperatures will climb during the summer months, so does power usage. It's important go green and conserve energy. Reducing your power usage may seem inconvenient, but power outages occur most often during the summer months when power usage is at its peak. Only use an air conditioner when you are home, and turn off nonessential appliances and lights in unoccupied room.
