Welcome to the Smart Energy House
With higher energy prices often dominating the news, the Office of the Ohio Consumers' Counsel (OCC) advocates for residential consumers to take steps to control their usage of electricity and natural gas.
To
help empower you to take steps that will lower your bills, the OCC
has constructed this online interactive home. With a few clicks of
your mouse, you can explore our home to better understand how the use
of appliances and other items throughout your own home can impact monthly
electric and natural gas bills.
Our goal is to provide you with the estimated costs for operating various appliances while also revealing the potential savings of owning energy efficient models. In addition, we have provided many tips throughout our home that, if followed, will set you on your way to using less energy throughout the year.
OCC has had to cancel many of its services, including its consumer call center, due to recent budget cuts. We realize you may continue to need assistance with your utility services. OCC's website provides free access to publications and resources.
You may seek assistance with utility complaints from the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio: 800-686-7826. For complaints about non-utility related services, you may call the Ohio Attorney General at 800-282-0515.
