Washing clothes during these peak hours can take more time and the electricity bill can also increase. So it is better to run the washing machine during off-peak hours when electricity demand is low—like in the evening, at night, or around noon.

This reduces electricity consumption and bills. It also reduces the strain on the electricity grid.
And how can you save on electricity bills? Avoid washing clothes at night during the summer. Avoid washing clothes in the morning during the winter, when electricity demand is highest. Wash clothes in cold water because hot water uses more electricity. Don’t run the washing machine for a few loads—run the machine only when it is fully loaded.
