Time Advantage 9 p.m. - 9 a.m. Rate Plan

If you use more energy on weekends, late evening or early morning hours, the Time Advantage 9 p.m. - 9 a.m. plan may be best for you. This plan does, however, require unassisted access to your meter.

Electricity used during off-peak hours costs less on this plan. If you are a Standard plan customer who lives in a home that is 1,100 sq. ft. or larger, typically use more than 1,000 kWh/month, and can shift 60 percent or more of your energy use to off-peak hours, you can lower your bill through the Time Advantage 9 p.m. - 9 a.m. plan. Your savings will increase as the percentage of electricity you use during these hours increases.

Here is a detailed comparison of our rate plans. Or, you can compare sample calculations of this Time Advantage 9 p.m. - 9 a.m. plan with the similar Time Advantage  7 p.m. - noon plan (both summer and winter months):

• Time Advantage 9 p.m. - 9 a.m. sample calculation
• Time Advantage 7 p.m. - noon sample calculation

The Time Advantage 9 p.m. - 9 a.m. plan may be best for you when:

• The APS meter readers have safe on-going unlimited access and can physically touch the meter each month. 
• You're not home during the day or you have low daytime electricity use.    
• You can operate your major electric appliances (water heater, pool pump, spa heater) with a timer set to run only during off-peak hours.    
• You use your dishwasher, washer, dryer and range mostly during off-peak hours.    
• You can set your air conditioning thermostat to a warmer temperature during on-peak hours.

Compare this plan to the Time Advantage 7 p.m. - noon plan.

As with all of our residential rate plans, you should remain on this plan for one year.
