- FlexHome is a voluntary pilot for SMECO residential members who have an eligible Wi-Fi-connected water heater or have purchased a new eligible water heater through the Home Energy Improvement Program.
- SMECO’s FlexHome pilot is designed to help reduce energy use during times of high energy demand. Reducing demand decreases the use of less efficient and more expensive power sources. That’s good for the environment, and our community!
- Participants agree to brief water heater adjustments lasting no more than a few hours during peak electric demand periods. Adjustments to your water heater typically occur on weekdays and non-holidays. Unless there is a system emergency, peak periods do not occur on weekends or holidays.
- Enrolled members receive incentives in the form of rebates the first year they enroll, and annual bill credits each year they participate.
