IT’S THE PERFECT TIME FOR IMPROVED COMFORT & ENERGY SAVINGS

Summer is here which means we are looking for ways to keep our homes and ourselves cool. But just because the temperatures are rising, it doesn’t mean our energy bills have to.

CPS Energy wants customers to join them and community partners at a People First! Community Fair. The fairs are designed to help customers become more energy efficient, learn how to save money and ensure their home is ready for the summer’s heat.

“We want all customers to be aware of how they can save on their energy bill during the hottest time of the year,” said Maria Garcia, Vice President of Community Engagement & Corporate Responsibility. “Attending our People First! Community Fairs are a great way to learn simple ways to save, get an up-close look at different technologies to help manage energy bills year-round and find out about our latest energy-saving programs, and more!”
