TEXASISHOT CAMPAIGN AIMS TO HELP TEXANS SAVE BILLIONS

Texas consumers now have a one-stop shop for tips, tools and information to conserve energy -- and save money in the process -- with the launch of www.TexasIsHot.org.

Texas leads the nation in energy production and consumption. Increased energy efficiency is the easiest, quickest and cleanest option to lower electric bills, help the environment and promote our state and nation’s energy independence. But, energy efficiency can sometimes sound intimidating because people think it will cost them something.

The TexasIsHot campaign wants to change this perception by providing Texans with simple tips, easy to use tools and real-time information to decrease their energy consumption — and save money in the process.

Simple energy efficiency solutions can help Texas homeowners save between 20 and 30 percent on their electric bills, an average savings of between $1,700 and $2,500 over five to seven years. A 20 to 30 percent savings for every Texas family amounts to nearly $2 billion in annual statewide savings.

The TexasIsHot campaign includes a comprehensive website – www.TexasIsHot.org - with the latest energy efficiency news, quick and easy energy efficiency tips, and interactive tools for consumers to analyze usage and the financial impact of conservation.

With the TexasIsHot campaign, we hope to help change habits, lower consumption and help Texans save billions of dollars.

We encourage you to visit www.texasishot.org often so we can keep you updated on energy efficiency initiatives, programs and technologies to put you in control. Read press release
