OG&E’s “Quick Start” Programs
"Quick Start" is an OG&E initiative to provide education, assistance and incentives for customers who want to better manage their energy use. Though the program will expand, here are some of the initial user-friendly components:
Save on Compact Fluorescent Lightbulbs (CFLs)
OG&E is providing coupons for CFL purchase, plus education about how to use and dispose of CFLs. Use CFLs instead of traditional bulbs throughout your home. They give the same amount of light, last much longer and use 75% less electricity for greater environmental benefits. To estimate savings for CFL conversion in your home, visit the Energy Calculator at oge.com.
Get Online Energy Efficiency Education
At oge.com and through bill inserts, we'll be providing more and more easy-to-understand information and training to help you consume less energy through energy efficiency and conservation measures.
Use LivingWise® Kits for Schoolkids
OG&E is supplying teachers and elementary schoolchildren with the LivingWise® curriculum and LivingWise® kits containing a CFL, an air filter, a faucet aerator, a low-flow shower head and night light energy-efficiency measures. The LivingWise® program helps children to become more energy aware and, in turn, helps educate their families.
Get Weatherization Assistance
OG&E is teaming with various weatherization agencies to make energy-efficiency improvements available to hard-to-reach, energy-inefficient homes. These improvements may include duct sealing, insulation installation, water heater blankets, door and window sealing, CFLs and appliance upgrades.
Commercial Lighting and Motor Replacement
OG&E is offering incentives for commercial and industrial customers to exchange inefficient lighting and motors for high-efficiency replacements.
