5 Simple Ways to Help Customers Save Energy (and Love Your Energy Efficiency Program) This Summer

Summer brings higher energy demand — and an opportunity for utilities to connect with customers through tangible, easy-to-implement solutions. Energy efficiency doesn’t need to be complex to be impactful. In fact, the simplest tools often deliver the strongest results, especially for hard-to-reach or income-sensitive customers.

Here are five proven, high-impact products and behaviors utilities can promote this summer to reduce load, improve satisfaction, and strengthen trust.

1. Promote Low-Watt Air Purifiers for Healthier Homes

Indoor air quality affects both comfort and energy use. Greenlite’s 15WAir Purifier with True HEPA 13 filtration removes allergens, smoke, and airborne particles — all while using minimal power.

Program Insight: Adding air purifiers to your program adds year-round value. Clean air allows HVAC systems to run more efficiently, reducing cooling load in summer months. It’s an easy win for both energy savings and occupant well-being.

2. Distribute Tier 1 Advanced Power Strips

“Phantom load” from plugged-in devices can eat up 5–10% of a household’s energy use. Greenlite’s Tier 1 Advanced Power Strips eliminate standby power with motion-sensing and master-controlled outlets.

Why It Works: These strips are ideal for kits or direct shipment. Utilities see strong engagement rates, and customer education is minimal — just plug and save.

3. Deploy Weatherization Kits to Beat the Heat

Air leaks through doors and windows force air conditioners to run longer and harder. Greenlite’s compact weatherization kits help seal leaks with foam tape, shrink film, and door sweeps — perfect for renters, seniors, or homes with older infrastructure.

Implementation Tip: Each Greenlite weatherization product includes easy-to-follow instructions in both English and Spanish, printed right on the packaging — no extra handouts or translations needed. This ensures higher install rates and makes the kits accessible to a broader audience, especially in multilingual communities.

4. Introduce Induction Cooking for Energy-Smart Kitchens

Traditional gas and electric stovetops are energy-intensive and contribute to indoor air pollution. Greenlite’s energy-efficient induction stove offers a safer, faster, and cleaner alternative — using magnetic technology to heat cookware directly with minimal heat loss.

Why It Works: Induction cooking is up to 90% efficient, significantly reducing cooking-related energy use. It’s an ideal addition to electrification and decarbonization initiatives — especially for multifamily housing programs, seniors, or small-space living.

5. Introduce Cordless Electric Lawn Equipment

Outdoor tools are often overlooked in efficiency programs. Greenlite’s cordless electric lawnmower is quiet, clean, and 100% battery-operated — making it an appealing rebate or sweepstakes item for high-efficiency campaigns.

Strategic Angle: Ideal for pilot programs or outreach to suburban customers who are looking for ways to go green beyond the home.
