New Year – New Innovation and Savings
2024 SECO Energy Toys for Tots
DEAR MEMBER, The new year is bringing new opportunities for innovation and savings. SmartHub, SECO Energy's trusted online platform for bill payments, now offers enhanced options to reduce energy and manage your home's energy consumption more efficiently. Over 180,000 accounts have been upgraded to Advanced Metering Inf rastructure (AMI) technology. These members can now access their home’s detailed energy use in 15-minute intervals, which is much more frequent compared to traditional monthly meter readings. With AMI technology, you can also set up high-energy usage alerts to spot spikes in energy use and take action to reduce consumption before the high-energy usage hits your bill at the end of the month. To pinpoint appliance and electronics use more accurately, visit SmartHub and build your home energy profile. When you add your appliances and devices to your profile in SmartHub, you can see how much electricity each appliance consumes and how that use translates into dollars spent. Using appliance-specific data, you can leverage analytics to find ways to reduce
unnecessary energy consumption. Building your home prof ile in SmartHub takes only a few minutes. Consider joining our new SECO Smart Connect Program for even more savings! This program rewards residential members for lowering energy use during peak demand times through eligible devices like smart thermostats, electric vehicle (EV) chargers, and battery backup systems. By enrolling eligible devices and adhering to the program's terms and conditions, you will earn reward credits that will be directly applied to your SECO Energy bill for your participation. Every little bit helps, and this year, SECO Energy wants to offer you innovative energy services along with tools and resources to help and incentivize you to monitor and manage your home's energy usage. Sincerely,
CURTIS WYNN
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
