If you're looking for ways to save energy and money in your home, check out the new Residential Energy Advisor tools available here. These fun interactive tools help you zero in on where you can save the most -- and fast!

Here's what you'll find in the Residential Energy Advisor:

  • The Home Energy Advisor -- This quick calculator provides an estimated breakdown of your energy use and costs by heating, cooling, water heating, refrigeration, lighting and appliances. Learn how much you can save in each area.
  • Billing Analysis -- Here the Home Energy Advisor goes one step further and incorporates your actual Fairfield Electric Cooperative bills in its calculations. Just log in to your Account, click on the “My Usage” tab and then click on “Explore Usage Management” to access your personal bill analysis.
  • Energy Forecast -- See the current weather's direct impact on your home's energy use and costs. Based on your area's 7-day weather, you can adjust a "virtual thermostat" for heating and cooling and see the daily dollar impact. Complete the home profile to pinpoint more savings opportunities. 
  • Lighting Calculator -- This tool quickly calculates and compares the operating costs of standard incandescent, halogen, compact fluorescent and LED lamps. 

In addition, you'll find a complete Home Energy Library and an Interactive Energy Home packed with more information and helpful tips. Plus, check out the Rate Calculator to see our current rates and brush up on your knowledge of electricity with the Fundamentals of Electricity tutorial.
