Peak days are expensive and dirty.

On a few of the hottest and coldest days each year, electricity demand in New England surges. To meet that demand, the grid relies on some of its dirtiest and most expensive fossil fuel power plants.

That's why Green Energy Consumers Alliance created ShaveThe Peak, a campaign that empowers households to use a little less electricity when it matters most.

Simple actions like raising your thermostat a few degrees, delaying laundry, and charging devices outside peak hours can collectively reduce pollution and ease strain on the grid.
