Save Power

As our province grows, so does the need for electricity. It's our job to make sure there is always enough electricity available to power this growth.

We're targeting 100 megawatts of savings by 2017 through residential, commercial and industrial demand-side management programs, and we see conservation as a fundamental aspect of meeting this goal.

Save Power programs

Through our portfolio of energy efficiency, load management and conservation programs, customers are able to learn more about what they can do to reduce their electrical consumption. By conserving power, our customers are helping us while also lowering their electrical use and their bills.

How conservation helps us—and you:

  • We avoid excess strain on the electricity system, especially during peak times—such as those on really hot days in the summer and on really cold days in the winter
  • We delay the building of costly new power stations
  • We increase our customer satisfaction by helping customers realize cost savings
  • We protect the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions

Saving power is in everyone's best interest!
