Summary
Arizona just shattered its energy use record, hitting 9,053 megawatts last Friday between 5 and 6 PM — a jump from the previous high set in August 2025. Despite the extreme heat (117°F) and unprecedented demand, APS kept the lights and AC running. The episode dives into how this surge reflects our dependence on power during sweltering summers and offers practical tips: switch to Budget Billing, pre-cool homes before peak hours, and use programs like Cool Rewards to earn credits by conserving energy. Small actions — like closing blinds or adjusting thermostats — can lead to big savings. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
