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. <\/span><b>Source:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kyuden.co.jp\/press_h240206b-1.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kyushu Electric Power<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\/ <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nikkei.com\/article\/DGXZQOJC067Z30W4A200C2000000\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nikkei<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/fnn_kyuden-head-office_2022_WEB.jpg?resize=1400%2C1050&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kyushu Electric Launches Daytime Discount Electricity Plan\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-149591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/fnn_kyuden-head-office_2022_WEB.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/fnn_kyuden-head-office_2022_WEB.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/fnn_kyuden-head-office_2022_WEB.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/fnn_kyuden-head-office_2022_WEB.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
