Shop OCPA On Green Friday
OCPA can help make green the new black.
Most of us are well familiar with Black Friday but have you heard of its sustainable alternative Green Friday?
Like its counterpart, Green Friday is also a prime opportunity the day after Thanksgiving to get a great deal on a wide range of consumer products – with the added bonus of affordably improving your energy efficiency.
The OCPA Marketplace has a large variety of products, with discounts and instant rebates available on smart thermostats, air purifiers, advanced power strips, indoor and outdoor lighting and LED bulbs, outdoor lawn equipment and a lot more.
A special holiday sale for OCPA customers includes an amazing deal on a Google Nest thermostat for $7.99 (originally $129.99) and Google Learning Nest for $92 (originally $249) after potential instant rebates. The ENERGY STAR-certified smart thermostats can save an average of 10-12% on heating bills and 15% on cooling bills. (Offer is valid 11/6/2023 through 12/27/2023 or while supplies last).
Small appliances are also on sale including the Honeywell True HEPA Allergen Remover Compact Tower air purifier and Honeywell Home Dehumidifier. Litheli electric lawn mowers and leaf blowers can help you take care of your lawn with a greener alternative than gas-powered tools, and there are several deals on chargers for your electric vehicles.
OCPA also offers customers OhmConnect, a free service that rewards you for saving energy. When you sign up, you receive alerts when energy is the most expensive – typically between 4-9 p.m. If you save electricity during this time, OhmConnect rewards you with gift cards or even cash via PayPal. That’s in addition to saving on your electricity bill. Verified OCPA customers also receive $50 for joining OhmConnect. Enroll with OhmConnect here.
So put the OCPA Marketplace and Ohm Connect on your list this holiday season – and all year long! Small actions like upgrading your equipment and household appliances with sustainable choices – as well as choosing renewable energy for your community with OCPA — will lead to a healthier, more resilient and sustainable future for all of us.
