Kyushu Electric Power has unveiled the “Ohisama Daytime Benefit Plan,” set to commence on April 1, which slashes daytime electricity rates by up to 50% for households. This pioneering initiative, the first of its kind among major utilities, specifically benefits users of energy-intensive appliances like EcoCute water heaters and electric vehicles. By incentivizing electricity use during lower-demand daytime hours, the plan not only aims to offer significant cost savings but also seeks to promote more sustainable energy consumption habits.
