About the Energy Tracking Tool

Discover details of how much power you consume, what your costs have been, what the temperature outside was and your environmental impact. The instructional graphic below can help.

You can see use and cost data by the hour, day, billing period or year. Study this guide, then start using the Energy Tracking Tool on your online account dashboard page. Did you see a day, or hour, when your electric use spiked? Do you know why that happened? You might find your power use can be slashed by simply adjusting the thermostat up or down a few degrees.

The Energy Tracker may not reflect your actual bill; slight discrepancies may occur due to outages or equipment errors. Please refer to your bill for exact meter readings and costs.
