Delaware Electric Cooperative
Beat the Peak
Since 2008, DEC’s Beat the Peak program has saved members over $42 million! Learn how you can start participating in Beat the Peak today!
During times when the cost to purchase and produce power for members is high, we issue Beat the Peak alerts where we ask members to conserve energy. The money saved is passed on to our members in the form of affordable rates.
