About:
Heating and cooling is the largest energy consumer in your home. If you're not home during the day, leaving your thermostat too high in the winter and too low in the summer is a big waste of energy. A Nest smart thermostat allows you to control the climate in your home remotely (from your phone!) and shows your energy consumption in real-time. ENERGY STAR certified smart thermostats differ from regular and even programmable thermostats by learning your behaviors and adjusting automatically to maximize your energy usage.
Rebate amount:
$50 when you sign up and $50 each year you're enrolled.
Potential savings on energy bill:
Members can save up to 15% on their energy bill each month by installing a smart thermostat and enrolling in our program.
Load management program By enrolling in our program you also give Northeastern REMC the ability to nudge your thermostat up or down during peak usage times. For example, on the hottest day of the year when air conditioners are running the 30,0000 homes on our system, we can adjust your thermostat by 2 degrees to reduce some of the power being used by everyone. With enough people moving up their thermostat, it will save everyone money and energy.
