Earn bill credits for using less energy—automatically.

Reducing your energy use between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. during an Energy Savings Day helps keep the overall cost of electricity down, reduces the need for additional power plants and eases the burden on Maryland’s electricity grid—all while earning you summer bill credits.*

*Your credit will appear as “Smart Energy Rewards” on your summer BGE bills (June-September), depending on when each Energy Savings Day occurs. If you are also a PeakRewards customer, your credit will appear as “Smart Energy Rewards/PeakRewards” on your summer BGE bills.

Tips to reduce your use

*BGE recommends setting your thermostat at 78°F. Customers should exercise discretion and consider health impacts when reducing electricity usage.
