Electric Ireland Customers To Save On Energy

A new partnership between Electric Ireland and Nest has been announced.

The partnership aims to bring the Nest Learning Thermostat™ to its customers throughout Ireland.

The offer is intended to bring in technology to both new and existing customers that will provide convenience and control in managing energy use, as well helping them realise energy savings.

Simply turn it up and down like a manual thermostat for about a week and Nest will create a personalised schedule that is refined over time. And with its built-in sensors, the Nest Thermostat knows when no one is home, so Nest's Auto-Away feature can automatically turn down the temperature, helping to save even more energy. And you can control the temperature from your smartphone, tablet or computer.

From 12th November, new Electric Ireland customers who sign up to a 2-year electricity price plan can receive the Nest Learning Thermostat and installation at no cost. Existing customers can get a Nest Thermostat and installation for €99.
