High Price Alerts

To help you plan your electricity use for the following day, Power Smart Pricing will send you a high price alert if prices will be 9 cents per kWh or higher for any number of hours the following day. The alert is sent the evening in advance between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. via the method of your choice – phone, text message or email. The alerts will let you know when it is a good time to pay special attention to your electricity use.
