Simple trick to reduce your peak electricity usage if you’re working from home and want it cool all day: set your AC low until it starts to get hot out and then turn it off. Works great if your insulation is good enough.

Not only do you only consume off-peak kWh, you also cool your home more efficiently because the AC coil temperature is lower and the AC doesn’t have to move heat across as large of a temperature difference.
