Expanding our conservation services
Puget Sound Energy provides a broad array of services and incentives to help our customers save energy—and money. Why? Simply put, it makes sense. What's more, it's the right thing to do.
Since 1979, no other Northwest utility has helped its customer save more energy than PSE. Over that time, our energy-efficiency programs have helped PSE customers conserve more than 2 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity—enough ongoing savings to serve nearly 175,000 households.
But we're not done. Our customers' energy needs are growing. And one of the best, most cost-effective ways to meet their needs is to invest in programs that help people use energy as efficiently as possible—to get more with less. So, in consultation with our regulators, environmental groups, customers and other stakeholders, we're building on our energy efficiency heritage and expanding our conservation services. Over the next two decades, we see the potential to help our customers save another 440 average-megawatts of electricity and 70 million therms of natural gas.
Our conservation programs run the gamut, from rebates on energy-efficient furnaces and appliances, to engineering consultation for commercial and industrial projects, to tailored grants for retrofits and upgrades in energy-intensive buildings. Please visit our Web pages For Your Home and For Your Business to learn more about energy-efficiency services and tools we've made available to you.
The Smart Energy video is a look at how energy efficiency at home and in businesses will protect the environment while also creating new economic opportunities. Puget Sound Energy, a leader in offering energy efficiency programs to its 1.1 million electric customers in Western Washington, produced the video to help communicate the urgency of conserving energy as well as the benefits smart energy choices have for industry and the consumer.
