Xcel Energy’s new bulb finder site locates low-priced LEDs

Xcel Energy is offering discounts on energy-efficient LED bulbs as well as an easy way to locate where to get them. Prices are as low as 8 cents per bulb in Colorado. Simply enter your zip code to find stores close to your location that offer LED bulbs at discounted prices.

LEDs are the new nationwide standard since it is now illegal to manufacturer and sell most traditional incandescent and halogen light bulbs. An ENERGY STAR LED bulb saves about $55 in electricity costs over its lifetime and lasts at least 13 years. ENERGY STAR LEDs are independently certified to deliver efficiency and performance.

Xcel Energy discounts can be found at many retailers including Ace Hardware, Batteries Plus, Costco, Dollar Tree, Home Depot, King Soopers, Lowe’s, Salvation Army, Sam’s Club, Target and Walmart. They can also be found periodically at Goodwill, Habitat ReStore and Walgreens.

The discounts are funded by Xcel Energy’s Demand Side Management program, created to help customers save energy and money through a variety of programs and services.
