How it works
SRP’s Daytime Saver Pilot allows customers to access cleaner, more affordable energy when they shift their electricity use to super off-peak hours — between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. every day.
How to save money on this price plan
To see the most savings on this plan, you’ll want to shift as much of your energy use as possible to super off-peak hours. Also, try to limit your energy use during on-peak times when higher charges apply.
Air conditioning
To maximize comfort and savings, we recommend that you precool your home for three hours (from 3–6 p.m.) by setting your thermostat 3 degrees cooler than your typical setting. During on-peak hours (6-9 p.m.), adjust your thermostat 2-3 degrees hotter than your typical setting. During super off-peak periods, you can set your thermostat to whatever temperature you are comfortable with.
Electric Vehicles
To maximize your savings, charge your electric vehicle(s) during super off-peak periods. If you need to charge your vehicle outside of super off-peak periods, try to avoid on-peak times.
Other appliances
Shift as much of your energy use to super off-peak and off-peak periods. To maximize your savings, appliances that use more energy should be shifted to super off-peak periods, including: washing machine/dryer, pool/spa, dishwasher.

Monthly service charge — This is a fixed fee covering the cost of facilities, equipment, billing and customer service. Customers on this price plan will pay a monthly service charge of $20.

The pilot begins April 2023 and ends in May 2026 unless terminated earlier. We’ll seek the feedback of those on the pilot and will take that into consideration for a future permanent price plan. The pilot will either become a permanent price plan or end. At that time, those on the pilot can either choose a new price plan or will automatically be changed to a default rate.
