Thank you to everyone who called us to report an outage this past Saturday. 928 customers lost power when two primaries came down on Ward St. After about an hour, HMLP was able to get most customers back online. The remaining 262 customers were restored after an additional hour when repairs were completed.
Due to the size of the outage, the answering service was inundated with calls and not everyone was able to leave a message. We apologize for this inconvenience and hope to improve our response capabilities moving forward.

Today is National #CutYourEnergyCostsDay! To celebrate, HMLP wants to share information about its energy saving programs with you. The average U.S. family spends $2,200/year on energy bills- save yourself money by making an effort to conserve energy.
_____________________________
✅ Energy Assessment: The first step to isolating any efficiency issues in your home is a NO-COST energy assessment. Get scheduled and start saving money immediately! ene.org/ene-sustainability/hea/
✅ Weatherization: An efficient, all-electric building depends on a well-insulated envelope. Weatherization projects minimize heat loss, leaks, and drafts while maximizing energy efficiency. In other words, your wallet just got a little heavier. www.hmlp.com/rebates/weatherization/
✅ Heat Pumps: Heat pumps are 3x more efficient than natural gas, oil, propane, and electric resistance heating. Switching to heat pumps can save families as much as $500/year according to the DOE. Connect with us and our step-by-step process at www.hmlp.com/rebates/heat-pump-rebates/
✅ EnergyStar Appliances: Appliances can have a large energy consumption. To save money, choose EnergyStar appliances that won't use as much electricity to operate. Also, unplug appliances when they are not in use! www.hmlp.com/rebates/appliance-rebates/
✅ Solar: Our final tip for National #CutYourEnergyCostsDay is to consider installing solar and batteries at your home. Customers can produce their own electricity with solar and even sell back power to the utility! What if your monthly electric bill was $0? www.hmlp.com/rebates/solar-rebates/
