Electric utilities nationwide are implementing new programs to educate their customers about energy efficiency and smart technology. Alabama Power, however, has taken this initiative a step further by working with partners to build smart neighborhoods.

For example, Alabama Power recently built its first Smart Neighborhood in suburban Birmingham, Alabama. The homes within this future-focused, energy-efficient community are said to be rated 35 percent more efficient than standard Alabama homes being built today.
