The mission of Ocala Electric Utility’s (OEU) C.A.R.E. (Communities are the Responsibility of Everyone) program is to connect employees with programs, projects, and organizations serving the needs and making a difference within our community.

“Beat the Peak” is a voluntary energy conservation program that encourages limited energy usage, especially during peak times. Peak times are when Ocala Electric Utility is purchasing wholesale power at the highest prices. By cutting back on the amount of wholesale power purchased during these peak, high-priced periods, Ocala Electric Utility can reduce its total wholesale power costs. Reductions in wholesale power costs are passed through to the customers in the Power Cost Adjustment (PCA).
