Arizona residents get paid to beat the heat

Thursday, August 31, 2023

PHOENIX, Aug. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Arizona is experiencing record high temperatures, lasting not just days but weeks, forcing many to crank up their air conditioners with the unintended effect of straining the region's electrical grid. This summer and fall, Arizonans have the opportunity to join demand response programs that support the grid and receive substantial compensation for participating, including cash and free or discounted smart thermostats.

Key Points: 
  • Some utilities are even giving away free smart thermostats, helping customers participate, save energy, and keep comfortable during the summer.
  • Arizona demand response programs are simple, and utility customers can always stop participating in a demand response event at any time by adjusting their thermostat setpoint.
  • "Arizona utilities are using this type of flexibility program to help keep the grid reliable and their customers comfortable and safe."
  • What if instead of appealing to goodwill, utilities just paid people to reduce their power use during peak hours?
