Flex Rewards

You already know about earning with Energy Wise Rewards™. Now you may be eligible to earn with the Flex Rewards pilot program. Eligible participants will receive up to $50 in bill credits per device per year. You’ll use less energy automatically and help reduce energy demand on the grid —that’s a benefit to your community and the environment. 

To participate in the Flex Rewards pilot, customers must have central air conditioning and an electric heat pump for heating.

How it Works

When you participate, minor adjustments of 1- 3 degrees for less than 2 hours will be made to your smart thermostat. This small adjustment can make a big difference to reduce energy use when the demand for electricity is high, such as during a hot afternoon in the summer or a cold morning in the winter.

You are Always in Control

Once an event is over, your smart thermostat will return to your normal setting. You can opt out of an event at any time by simply adjusting your thermostat.
