How Homeowners Can Benefit from Smart Meters in 2021

In today’s modern world, electronics and digital devices seem to be everywhere—and they can save you money! When it comes to prepaid electricity plans, Smart Meters make it possible for consumers to monitor and track power consumption in real time.

Instead of traditional postpaid electricity plans, which require customers to pay for utilities after the usage has already occurred, prepaid plans offer the option to pay ahead of time. This “pay-as-you-go” method has proven to be very cost-efficient, thanks to the availability and features of Smart Meters. Smart Meters are electronic devices installed in your home to record power usage in “real time.”

Homeowners can benefit from using these prepaid electricity meters in a number of ways. Read on for the perks of using a Smart Meter with your prepaid power plan.

Cut down on your monthly power bill

In today’s times of a global pandemic, saving money wherever possible is a very real and important part of most people’s lives. Until now, cutting down on utility costs wasn’t really seen as an option with much flexibility.

• Prepaid electricity plans, thanks to Smart Meters, allows Texans the ability to pay ahead of time with the amount they want to spend, track their usage and habits, and cut back in certain areas of power consumption to stay on track with their budget.
• Recording this valuable data and usage in “real time” means you can see what appliances and/or times of the day your consumption is higher than others, for example, allowing you the chance to scale back as needed to help trim your monthly power expenses and make changes in the future.
• Rather than feeling blindsided with a huge power bill at the end of the month, Smart Meters help consumers feel more “in the know” as it relates to their usage, providing more accurate information than was possible ever before.

Spot potential problems early

Smart Meter benefits include giving customers the ability to see early on where a problem with one or more appliances may be brewing.

• For example, if you notice that one appliance is suddenly using a great deal more energy than usual, and your use of that item has not increased along with it, this may signal a potential problem. The appliance may not be functioning properly, or may be in the process of wearing out.
• This could also potentially prevent risk of fire or other danger, adding to the benefits and peace of mind that a Smart Meter can provide.
• Addressing the issue before it worsens will save you money, time, and energy down the road. This may mean fixing an appliance yourself or enlisting the services of a professional to do so.

Easy-to-Access Data

Smart Meters display your home’s data both on the actual Smart Meter itself, as well as through your online account access.

• User-friendly data is combined with helpful account alerts from Peso Power, which you can receive via email or text—whichever method you prefer.
• Account alerts come in handy often, including in the event that your balance drops too low—you will be informed quickly, allowing you to add additional funds to tide your account over to the next billing cycle.
• This way, you’ll never have to worry about suddenly having your power disconnected or being hit with a huge bill at the end of the month.
