We have ideas that will help you save money and energy!
Renewable Energy Program
You can contribute to a cleaner environment and sustainable energy future by investing a few dollars every month in our Renewable Energy Program. It doesn't require new equipment, any changes in how you use or receive energy, or any long-term commitments. What could be simpler? Best of all, by supporting renewable energy, you can help ensure a good quality of life for your family and your community for generations to come. Every dollar you invest in renewable energy is used to foster the growth of renewable resources.
Residential Conservation Programs
Using less energy and water is important for all of us and can make a big difference on your monthly utility bill and on the environment as a whole. We can reduce our dependency on foreign oil, reduce our energy and water costs, and reduce air pollution, if we all do our part to use a little less electricity and/or water.
In cooperation with Wisconsin's Focus on Energy, New Glarus Utilities offers a variety of programs to aide you in reducing your energy and/or water consumption in your home; thus helping you save money and protect the environment.

Tree Power
Did you know that trees can save you energy and money? Properly planted around your home, shade trees can lower your cooling costs in summer. Trees that shade the South or West side of the building can reduce air conditioning costs in summer. When the leaves fall in the winter, the bare trees allow warm sunlight to reach your home.
Deduct/Second Meter
Do you want to save more on your utility bills....well stop paying sewer charges for water used to water your garden, wash your car, etc. Install a deduct meter today. Deduct meters allow the utility to only charge water (not sewer) expenses on water used outside of the home that goes into the ground and not into the sewer system.
