What Are SRP Off-Peak Hours?

The Salt River Project (SRP) is an Arizona-based utility company that provides power to the Phoenix metropolitan area. SRP has 10 different rate plans to choose from for pre-solar and post-solar customers. Some of these rate plans have SRP Off-Peak Hours, and electricity is less expensive during these times. Thus, utilizing Off-Peak Hours can save customers money on their electric bills.

Customers can save money using the SRP Off-Peak Hours by using their large appliances during these times. The largest energy-users in the home are the Air Conditioning, Electric Clothes Dryer, Electric Water Heater, and Electric Stove. Using these appliances only during SRP Off-Peak Hours will save you money on your electricity.
