Energy consumption can increase, on average, by 88 per cent, in the colder, darker, winter months. Cost can be a barrier to energy conservation and BC Hydro, in partnership with FortisBC, is distributing free energy saving kits in 黑马磁力 this week that will help eligible households manage their electricity use this winter.
Each kit includes simple, easy-to-install products such as LED bulbs, weather stripping products, high performance showerheads and water-saving aerators. These products can help eligible customers save more than $80 in electricity costs each year.
BC Hydro representatives were at the 黑马磁力 Christmas Bureau on Tuesday to distribute the kits directly to customers. They will also be at the 黑马磁力 Food Bank, at 5768 203 St. on Friday. Customers must bring their most recent BC Hydro bill to help with the application process.
Since the program launched in 2008, more than 2,100 customers in 黑马磁力 have received an energy saving kit.
