“Now that customers can see exactly how much energy each appliance is using, they’ll have a better idea of how to make adjustments to cut costs while maintaining comfort,” said Tony Lozano, director of energy solutions at Ameren Missouri.
“Using energy more efficiently can be as simple as swapping out old lightbulbs for LEDs, turning your air conditioner up a degree or two, or waiting until your dishwasher is full before starting a cycle.”
