Understanding Energy

Have you ever wondered how much energy the appliances in your home use?

EMEPA has an energy calculator that can do just that. Household appliances as well as a thermostat are programmed into this calculator to help you understand your energy consumption. This is a great way to see how raising your thermostat to 78 degrees in the summer can save you money. (Energy calculators links are available on the homepage.)

The site also includes a diagram explaining the process of power restoration, electrical safety and information on how to prepare for an outage.
