MyEnergy is an online suite of easy-to-use tools that can help you understand your energy usage and conserve. You'll be able to track your energy efficiency efforts over time and see comparisons to similar homes in your area.

We compiled energy usage information, customer- supplied data and public information (location, size, home age and heating source) on nearby, similar homes to develop the comparison. However, public information sometimes becomes outdated as homes are renovated or situations change. If the information on your report appears to be incorrect, please provide us the correct information by emailing MyEnergyLI@pseg.com or calling 1-800-692-2626 (Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.), so we can update it.

Yes, these are real homes. We use a scale of 1 to 100 to rank all of the homes that are similar to yours. The Average Home represents the ones in the middle of the pack, performing at the 50-percent mark. The Energy Efficient Home represents homes that fall at the 25-percent mark, which means that 25 percent of the homes in your comparison consume this amount – or less - energy.

They are likely taking a variety of savings-actions, like: adjusting or programming their thermostats to manage heating and cooling costs; turning off lights and home electronics when not in use; running only full laundry and dishwasher loads; and installing more efficient heating/air-conditioning systems, water heaters or appliances.

When customers reduce their energy needs, it helps reduce energy bills. It actually helps control costs for everyone by reducing the cost to provide energy and the need to build additional power plants. Saving energy makes business sense and common sense.

Gasoline is sold in gallons. Electricity is sold in kilowatt-hours (kWh). A 4,000 watt clothes dryer used for 1 hour consumes 4 kWh of electricity (4,000 watts x 1 hour = 4,000 watt-hours = 4 kWh).

The amount of money you can save depends entirely on how much energy you are currently using, your home, and the amount of effort and investment you are willing to make to reduce your energy bills.

No. All of the comparison information is aggregated to create your report. Your specific information and home characteristics are not shared with others.
