CMLP’s residential Time of Use Rate charges lower than the basic 3-tier residential rate during off-peak hours and higher than the tiered rate during peak hours. Off-peak hours are 10pm to noon on weekdays and 24 hours a day on weekends (118 hours per week). On-peak hours are noon to 10 pm on weekdays (50 hours per week). By shifting much of your electric usage to off-peak hours, you can work with CMLP to reduce peak demand charges, helping keep all customers’ bills lower. Peak demand charges refer to the extra cost of electricity during times when there is the greatest demand for electricity throughout the regional electric grid. Please note that if you sign up for the Time of Use Rate, you must stay on it for a minimum of one year.
