How to Save Money on Your Great Lakes Energy Electic Bill

Many Great Lakes Energy customers are finding themselves asking, "Why is my electric bill so high?" as electric rates continue to rise across the country. To combat these increasing costs, it's crucial to adopt energy-saving strategies that can significantly reduce your monthly bill. Start by conducting a home energy audit to identify areas where energy is being wasted, such as drafty windows or outdated appliances. Upgrading to energy-efficient appliances and LED lighting can make a substantial difference. Additionally, consider using programmable thermostats to optimize heating and cooling schedules, ensuring your HVAC system runs only when necessary. Unplugging electronics when not in use and utilizing smart power strips can also help minimize phantom loads. By implementing these changes, Great Lakes Energy customers can take control of their energy consumption and mitigate the impact of rising electric rates.
