"""Beat the Peak"" is a demand response program that informs members when peak conditions occur and how to react during a peak event. A ""Beat the Peak"" event is usually less than fours hours, could occur several days in a month, and provides significant cost savings to the member and the Cooperative.
This voluntary program encourages members to conserve or limit energy usage during ""Peak"" energy times when your Cooperative may be purchasing power from the market at extremely high prices. By limiting the amount of power purchased during these ""Peak"" high-priced energy, the Cooperative can reduce its total power costs and provide significant savings for the member and the Cooperative."
