Customers who switch to an ecobee smart thermostat and enroll in the ConEd ecosave program can also help reduce their families’ energy costs, which are predicted to rise. According to recent ConEd estimates, the average Westchester County customer's electricity bill is expected to rise by 27% this winter, from $160 last year to $203, due to increases in the market cost of natural gas. And, the average residential natural gas heating customer will pay $460 a month from November 2022 to March 2023, compared to the $348 average last year.¹ ecobee smart thermostats can help alleviate these rising energy costs and help customers save up to 26% on their annual heating and cooling costs.²
