Plan for this afternoon/eve - Reduce Energy use 3-7pm

Wellesley residents and businesses please plan to reduce your energy use THIS AFTERNOON/EVE - Monday, July 20th - between 3-7pm. By reducing energy use we can avoid pulling power from the New England Independent System Operator (ISO-NE)'s oldest, most expensive, and dirtiest generating plants.

Wellesley Municipal Light Plant is asking its customers to voluntarily help to meet the high demand in all of New England by Shaving the Peak load by planning ahead. 

You can do this by:

• Turning up the thermostat a few degrees
• Making sure that electric vehicles or other electric devices are charged outside the peak window
• Delaying laundry or dishwashing until after the peak

Please:

• Contact Wellesley Municipal Light Plant with any questions
• Share the news with friends and neighbors so they can join this effort too!
