Yeah, it's kind of like how LIPA is always doing programs to educate people on how to set up their homes to become more energy efficient (insulation, appliance choices, etc.). Is it because LIPA actually wants less business? NO, it's because LIPA wants to keep raising the rates as much as possible and figures if we are using less electricity we won't notice as much.
