PSE | Lower your bill

November Wind Storm

System-wide:

We’ve made significant progress restoring transmission and substations are getting back online, crews are finding extensive damage to local distribution lines that need to be repaired before power can be restored.

In King County crews are saying the damage is comparable to the worst storms of past decades.

We are aware of an issue with our outage map. It is not reflecting all of the customers whose power has been restored, and is not showing a set of customers who are still without power. Our internal systems for identifying outages and prioritizing restorations are still functioning. The map issue appears to stem from a technology change-over for the mapping system that was implemented this fall. We know it is frustrating for our customers, and we are working hard to reconcile the data showing on the map. We ask that you continue to report outages if needed. Our crews will continue to work around the clock until the last customer is restored.

We’re here to help: Increase your efficiency and lower your bill

Special offers:

You can always get $75 off smart thermostats on PSE Marketplace, and we regularly offer extra savings with special deals on specific models.

We know managing your energy bill can be difficult, which is why we offer rebates on efficient products that can lower your monthly costs and make home upgrades more affordable.

Here are simple things you can do to get started:

1. Don’t wait to insulate! Insulation and air sealing can help keep your home cool in the summer and lower your heating bill as much as 8% during colder months. These measures can also improve air quality! Do it yourself or use our rebates when you hire a contractor.

2. Hello, sun. Whenever it’s sunny, take advantage by turning off unnecessary lights. And consider installing efficient windows to help keep warm air inside during winter and block heat during summer.

3. Lower thermostat, higher savings. Adjust the set point of your thermostat by a few degrees while you’re asleep or away. Buy a discounted smart thermostat on the PSE Marketplace for more energy-saving features.

4. Save buckets by using less hot water. Heating water accounts for about 12% of your monthly bill, so wash clothes and dishes with cold water whenever possible. Check out our water heater and laundry appliance rebates too!

5. Dusty filters? Cleaning or replacing filters in your heating and cooling equipment can improve efficiency and overall functioning. If you have a furnace, changing the filters regularly could save you up to 7% each month.
