Danville Utilities has earned the Smart Energy Provider designation from the American Public Power Association (APPA), recognizing its commitment to energy efficiency, sustainability, innovative energy solutions, and customer service and engagement.
The designation was announced during APPA's Customer Connections Conference, held recently in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Smart Energy Provider program evaluates utilities in four key areas:
Smart energy program planning: Developing strategies and programs that support efficient energy use and long-term energy needs.
Energy efficiency and distributed energy resources: Helping customers manage energy consumption and supporting innovative energy technologies.
Environmental and sustainability programs: Promoting responsible energy practices and environmental stewardship.
Communication and customer experience: Keeping customers informed and engaged through education, outreach, and service initiatives.
The recognition reflects Danville Utilities' ongoing efforts to help customers make informed energy decisions, reduce energy costs, and take advantage of programs designed to improve efficiency.
Among those efforts are the utility's energy efficiency programs, including incentives for qualifying heating and cooling system improvements, insulation upgrades, and smart thermostats. These initiatives help customers better manage their energy use while supporting the utility's broader commitment to responsible energy management.
The designation also highlights the importance of planning for the community's future energy needs while maintaining dependable service for residents and businesses.
