How utilities can enhance efficiency through consumer rate programs

Too few customers are familiar with their energy-provider’s special rate programs, according to market research firm Parks Associates. With many service providers offering special rates as part of energy programs, there is opportunity for households to save and for the utility to lower electricity consumption.

Growing energy programs will need to be a high priority for service providers before they can reach customers in mass. Parks Associates will be addressing this topic along with leaders in the connected home and energy industries at its 15th annual Smart Energy Summit. Smart Energy Summit is co-located with DISTRIBUTECH, the largest utility and energy-focused conference in the world, on February 27-28 at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida.
