Change that goes beyond your pocket
Peak times occur on certain days in the summer and winter when the demand for energy is at its highest. Energy-shifting programs can reduce your energy use during these times – called "Peak Time Events".
By participating in the energy-shifting programs below, you can help keep energy reliable, earn rebates on your bill and support more sustainable resources. It’s a win-win-WIN!
Peak Time Rebates
During a Peak Time Event, you decide how to shift your energy by reducing the use of electric appliances or devices such as air conditioning, heating or washer/dryer.
Start by doing less housework and play more games at peak times!
Smart Thermostat Program
Before a Peak Time Event, your smart thermostat will automatically adjust the temperature to pre-cool or pre-heat your home, reducing energy use during the event.
You can always adjust the temperature for your comfort.
EV Smart Charging Program
Our Smart Charging program offers rebates to help you charge faster at home with a Level 2 charger.
You also get ongoing PGE bill credits for allowing us to shift your electric car charging during times of high energy demand.
