Peaksaver^™

Be a neighborhood power star with peaksaver!

Joining the peaksaver program means you can help reduce the demand for electricity in your community. And you’ll feel great knowing you’re doing something good for the environment.

It’s no sweat to participate. Just sign up to allow Halton Hills Hydro to cycle down your air conditioning temporarily. It will help reduce the strain on the electricity system on summer days when electricity use is at its peak.

We’ll only do it when absolutely necessary (usually between 12 p.m. and 6 p.m. on weekdays; never on weekends or holidays).

We’ll install a programmable thermostat that allows us to send a wireless signal to cycle down your air conditioner, and/or an electric water heater load control device that will shut off your water heater for short periods of time. You probably won’t notice the difference in the comfort level or temperature of your home.

To be eligible you must be a homeowner of a single-family home with a central cooling system. We’ll do all the work at no expense to you. In fact, you’ll even receive $25 from the Ontario Power Authority just for signing up.
