Switch
Switching to SmartHours is the first step toward big and smart savings on energy. Enroll here and put yourself in control of your energy costs. It takes just three easy clicks to save big.
Shift
With SmartHours, you have control over your energy usage and bill. Shift your electricity use on weekdays between 2 and 7 pm from June 1st to September 30th and pay nearly half price for electricity the other 19 hours, as well as on weekends, Independence Day and Labor Day.
Save
SmartHours puts you in complete control of your savings. You control your thermostat. You decide all your electricity use. Simple shifts such as pre-cooling your home before 2 pm, keeping the doors and blinds closed, and delaying cooking or laundry until 7 pm can increase your savings.
With SmartHours, you are in control of your usage and of your pricing plan. Choose from SmartHours Variable Peak Pricing (VPP) or SmartHours Time of Use (TOU). You pay the same low off-peak rate on both programs.

With SmartHours VPP, the daily on-peak rate varies between low, standard, high, and critical rates. You can always check our up-to-date with your SmartHours pricing signal online or receive day-ahead price notifications via email, phone or text through myOGEalerts. On occasion, high energy demand may cause a critical event. While these events are rare, they can occur any time of day, any time of year and can last up to eight hours. OG&E sends critical event notices at least two hours ahead, so you can prepare.
For SmartHours TOU, you pay the same on-peak price every weekday from June through September. When critical events occur, your pricing plan will stay in place.
Our partnership with If This, Then That (IFTTT) offers technology that enables your smart thermostat to automatically react to daily price signals. Connect your thermostat to IFTTT and then set your thermostat to react to low, standard, high and critical prices communicated daily by OG&E.
