Flex Smart+

Flex Smart+ is a voluntary energy efficiency pilot program launched in late 2022 for Bainbridge Island residents who heat and/or cool their homes with electricity. The program works to meet the island’s growing demand for energy by offering residents increased incentives for participating in PSE Flex demand response programs and higher rebates for energy efficient home improvements.

How it Works

Sign up for one of the PSE Flex programs and receive increased incentives:

• Flex Rewards - During Flex events, PSE will send you notifications to reduce your energy usage. Get $25 for enrolling, $15 for each year you stay enrolled, and $1 per kWh you save during Flex events.
• Flex Smart - Own a wi-fi enabled smart thermostat? During Flex events, PSE will automatically adjust its temperature set point by a few degrees with no action needed on your part. Earn up to $50 per device enrolled, plus an additional $75 enrollment reward as a Bainbridge Island resident.
• Flex Water Heaters - During Flex events, PSE will automatically pause water heating. Earn up to $20 for enrolling, $20 per year, plus an additional $75 enrollment reward as a Bainbridge Island resident.
• Flex EV - PSE will remotely signal your home EV charging to happen outside the hours of Flex Events. Earn $50 for enrolling, plus a $75 enrollment reward as a Bainbridge Island resident.
• Flex Batteries - Own a battery storage system? Earn money by partnering with PSE and allowing your battery to be called upon during Flex Events, with no action or behavior change
