Xcel Energy contacted us and stated, “We appreciate that you are currently curtailing your interruptible gas meters; however, with the continued extreme record-breaking cold weather we’ve had for the past couple of days, we are reaching out asking that you also review your sites to determine if you can implement any conservation measures that would lower your FIRM natural gas consumption (i.e. postpone use of unnecessary gas equipment, lower thermostats by a degree or two, etc.). We are requesting this voluntary effort be made at any time of the day that you could implement reduction measures, and particularly targeting the mornings from 5-9 AM if possible, until this cold weather breaks.”
