#PeakAlert: The morning peak is over.
Thank you, Saint John! When customers respond to #ShaveThePeak, you help us avoid hundreds of thousands of dollars in peak costs and keep Saint John’s power rates the lowest in the region. #Zero30
I just know all the Saint John’s industrial businesses are really doing their part today to #shavethepeak too! 🙏
#PeakAlert: We are hitting our energy demand peak! Now is the time to reduce your electricity usage, if you are able to, to help shave off the peak! #ShaveThePeak
⚠️ PEAK ENERGY ALERT: Cold temps + low wind tomorrow morning means we need your help to #ShaveThePeak, Saint John! Please reduce energy when you wake up:
❄️ Fri Feb 6: 7:30-10am

#ShaveThePeak Alert 🚨 When electricity demand spikes, dirty, expensive power plants often kick in. Let's work together to make a difference for our grid and our wallets. Conserve energy from 4-8 PM (especially 6-8 PM) today 7/28 and tomorrow 7/29!

Screenshot of a text message: I got my peane shave text this morning It's hot and demand for fossil fuels is high! #ShaveThePeak and conserve electricity from 4-8PM, especially 6-8PM, today, July 25th. Text STOP to opt out.
Yesterday, friends sent a useful reminder to #ShaveThePeak
Last week we kept an eye on extreme rain, flooding and storm sewerage overflows
What happenswhen we cannot rely on traditional services?
Temperatures are hitting over 90°F with high humidity, pushing our electricity grid to its peak. This means dirty, expensive "peaker plants" might fire up to meet demand.
Conserve energy and #ShaveThePeak from 4-8 PM (especially from 6-8 PM). Collective efforts can make a difference. 💪
🔥 Hot days = grid strain, higher costs & more pollution. Help out by signing up for @MassEnergy’s #ShaveThePeak alerts—text/email notices to reduce power use 4–8PM.
Small changes = big impact for Cape Cod.

#ShaveThePeak for the win!
A line graph with 3 curves showing energy demand forecast, actual, and estimated solar contribution. The Y axis is MW and runs from 14k through 28k. The X axis is time of day in 4 hour intervals, and it doesn't say it but this was Wednesday July 16 in New England. The orange actual curve starts climbing at about 4am and closely matches the blue forecast curve all day. But around 7am a yellow curve showing the estimated addition of the solar production pulls away and climbs off to the left of the actual curve. This means that if we didn't have the solar our demand would have looked way higher all day until the peak is hit around 7pm and the curves start to drop again. There's a small box of text right above the peak area that says: 23,830 MW / HE 08:00 PM blue text 24,037 MW 07:00 PM orange text 24,486 MW 07:00 PM yellow text
Interesting. Green Energy Consumers sent their #ShaveThePeak newsletter today with a graph I always wondered about. It illustrates where the curve would be without the behind-the-meter #Solar that we have.
First time I've seen it illustrated.
#ShaveThePeak Alert! Conserve energy from 4-8pm, especially from 6-8pm, today (7/16) and tomorrow (7/17). Collective action and the transition to more renewable sources of energy can keep the dirtiest resources out of the fuel mix.
