Kirkland, six neighboring cities, and Puget Sound Energy are joining forces to involve residents in a home energy-saving pilot program. Kirkland households have been notified and those who participate will receive free, customized Home Energy Reports designed to help them make more informed decisions about their energy usage and ultimately, lower their energy bills.

Through the program, participants will see how their electricity and natural gas use compares to the total usage of neighbors in similar-sized homes. Each household’s energy information is kept confidential. For more information, contact Puget Sound Energy at energyreports@pse.com or call 1-800-562-1482. To learn more about Kirkland’s participation, call 425-587-3907 or e-mail vsheth@ci.kirkland.wa.us.
