Happy energy efficiency day! Today we celebrated with our home tour event!

With Georgia’s growing energy demand from data centers, prioritizing energy efficiency in our own lives is one way to take control of our energy use and power bills. Today, Christopher walked us through the many upgrades he made to make his home more comfortable and energy efficient.

Georgians need a Consumer Utility Council (CUC) to represent and advocate for them at the Public Service Commission.

Georgia Power is betting big on new data centers driving up demand for electricity. They have approval to build 10,000 MW of electricity, most of it gas powered to serve data centers. This is enough to power 5-10 million homes! But if the data centers don’t need the electricity, residential customers and small businesses will end up paying for it unless legislation passes to make it clear we can’t be forced to foot the bill.
