July means the heart of the summer, and with that comes the Kansas heat and the need to stay cool by running the air conditioner during those sweltering days. It’s hard to think about cutting back on energy use when temperatures reach three digits, but in fact, that is the best time to consider saving electricity—even if it is just a little bit.

Hot Temps Mean Higher Bills
|
Looking at the graph below we do see some consistency. However, June 2018 is expected to yield electric bills that are higher than last year seeing cooling degree days increase by 28 percent. Not near as high as 2016 and not as dramatic as last month's 236 percent increase (May 2018).

days click here, or contact our energy use coordinator for information on how your family can save during the summer months.
