Want to save energy, save money on your power bill and help shrink South Carolina’s carbon footprint? The S.C. Energy Office and Central Electric Power Cooperative, your co-op’s wholesale power provider, are giving a limited number of co-op homeowners an opportunity to participate in energy efficiency research studies that will help determine which measures work best in the state’s homes. The goal is to make co-op homes across the state more energy efficient, reducing how much fossil fuel is used to generate electricity and postponing the need to build new power plants. If selected for this study, participants will have access to their home’s energy use for one full year either via an internet connection or from an in-home display. This near real-time information on the home’s electric energy consumption can show you how reducing energy use can translate into savings. |
