Ways to Save: Time-of-Use Rate
Sign Up Now for Energy Savings
Making small changes to when you use energy could help you save on your electric bill.
By signing up for Jackson EMC’s Time-of-Use rate, you can take advantage of a year-round lower electric rate for reducing your energy use between the hours of 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays from June 1 to Sept. 15.
Reducing your energy use during summer peak periods helps us control the higher costs of producing electricity in the summer.
For participating members, Jackson EMC installs a meter that logs all energy used during peak and off-peak periods. During peak periods (3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays, excluding the Independence Day and Labor Day holidays, between June 1 to Sept. 15), the cost of electricity per kilowatt hour will be 34.35 cents. During off-peak periods, the cost lowers significantly for Time-of-Use participating members to only 7.35 cents per kilowatt hour. The normal residential rate is 8.81-11.66 cents per kilowatt hour. The monthly service charge for Time-of-Use members is $25 per month.
To participate this summer, sign up by May 1. Members who sign up after May 1 will begin the Time-of-Use rate next summer. Register by calling 1-800-462-3691 or visiting your local Jackson EMC office.
