Drop the kids off at day care? Check. Pick up dry cleaning? Check. Change thermostat setting . . . you forgot, huh?
If you are like many homeowners, changing your thermostat settings doesn't always make it to the top of your to-do list. TXU Energy wants to help change that with its new Brighten® brand, designed to bundle the company's portfolio of energy savings solutions under one name.
Brighten® is a group of energy saving solutions that will help customers better manage and reduce energy consumption to save you money. Products under the Brighten® brand include the Brighten® Power Monitor, Brighten® iThermostat and the Brighten® Online Energy Store. All are solutions designed to help you use less energy to save cash without sacrificing comfort or convenience. And Brighten® products are designed to encourage an energy efficient lifestyle by incorporating earth-friendly habits into your daily routine.
"Energy efficiency is a lifestyle," said Michael Grasso, chief marketing officer for TXU Energy. "The inspiration behind Brighten® is centered on all of us embracing energy efficiency at our homes, at the office and wherever life takes us."
Done playing with your gaming system? Turn it off using a smart power strip. Left home without turning off the air conditioner? Turn it down from your smart phone with the Brighten® iThermostat.
