## Resource

This summer’s soaring electricity bills are no joke—costs are up 10.5% as demand surges from data centers, gas prices climb, and aging grids need urgent repairs. But you can fight back: bump your thermostat just one degree to slash your bill by 3%, and keep it at 78°F to ease grid strain. Simple moves like closing blinds, unplugging devices, and servicing your AC can keep your home cool without draining your wallet.
