Energy Advisor Program
The Energy Advisor Program was developed to educate our members about energy efficiency. Saving energy saves you money and helps your cooperative keep energy costs as low as possible.
We would be glad to come to your home and perform an energy audit. The audit will give you more information about your electrical use and perhaps detect an appliance or building envelope issue that has been increasing your bill.
There is no fee for the energy audit. Just contact us to make an appointment. It is just one of the many services we provide as part of your Jasper County REMC membership.
