[ARCHIVED] Power Savers Alert!! - 1/29/26

Due to low temperatures and increasing energy demand, we are asking municipal electric customers to VOLUNTARILY reduce electric use TOMORROW, Thursday, January 29th, 2026.  Power Saver Hours are from 6 am to 9 am.  Customers are encouraged to lower their electric use during these hours to save money both now and later.  Participation will lower electric use throughout the community and in return lower customers’ monthly electric costs and reduce utility energy costs over time.  The more people that participate, the bigger the impact.


Customers can help by taking simple steps such as:

  • Seal drafts around windows and doors to keep warm air in.
  • Leaving the curtains opening during the day allows heat from the sun to do the work instead of your heater.
