Learn what you can do to bring those charges down by doing very simple things, and see if that old fridge in the carport is costing more than it’s worth.

Your next step may be to consider installing a PV (photovoltaic) system for your home. It can dramatically lower your electric bill — but it’s still up to you to help conserve energy and be smart about your energy usage. Smart Energy Hawaii works with you to not only help you install and maintain your PV system, but also to continue helping you find ways to lower your unnecessary consumption by being smart with your energy.

It’s pretty basic: If you use less energy, you will need a smaller PV system. By upgrading certain appliances and adding more efficient systems like a solar hot water heater, you can reduce your monthly kilowatt usage and save money. The company is here to help you save on the front end and on the back end.

Even if you have a PV system in place, the company can help you save even more on monthly energy bills — just by being smart.
