Use a laptop computer- they use 60% less power than a desktop. Use the librarys computer and save even more energy. Turn the electric water heater on for an hour or two before going to bed, then turn it off. It should stay warm all the next day if the tank is well insulated. Turn your heat down or off when leaving the house for long periods of time. It takes less energy to rewarm an area than it does to keep an area warm constantly. 0% 0 Votes

One of the best things you can do,if you have an electric hot water heater, is open the little panel on it and turn the temp down.Turn off any lights you don%26#039;t need.I don%26#039;t get any bulbs above a 60watt either. 0% 0 Votes

1)general rule if your not in the room lights out
2)if you are in the room how many lights do you really need on only have on the lights you need
3)CFL%26#039;s are good but remember they contain mercury if they make/find non mercury ones even better
4)allow and make use of natural sun light as much as possible
5)when preparing meals cook as much as possible for that meal at once don%26#039;t have the oven on for hours because everyone comes home at a different time set a meal time and that%26#039;s when you eat
6)if you have an electric water heater wash your laundry with cold water detergents,wash dishes in the sink avoid the dishwasher but if you need to make sure the dishwasher is full and on the energy saver mode
7)make a drying line for laundry items either in the furnace room in winter and outside for summer 25% 1 Vote

Hello

1.Switch off Bulb/Mixer/Water Heater when not in use.

2.Do not use Air Condition or Cooler. Use fans in Bed Rooms.

3.Co lour all the walls in WHITE. It gives more brightness.

4.Try to reduce the Microwave cooking. Try to take cooked items and fresh items.

5.USE SOLAR ENERGY FOR HOUSE/OFFICE.

Install solar power, then you wont have bill!! :) 0% 0 Votes

switch off all electrical appliances when not in use, don%26#039;t just put on stand-by as this wastes a hell of a lot of energy, only boil the amount of water you need in a kettle as boiling a full kettle wastes more energy, make sure your loft/attic is well insulated, and that only the floor of the loft is insulated NOT the roof, also make sure the loft hatch is insulated, this will reduce your heating bill, have a shower not a bath, showers use less water and only heat the water you use, plus they are more hygienic. 25% 1 Vote

If you can, put up and use a clothes line to dry your clothes. Wash laundry in cold water. If you have to use your dryer, make sure it is running properly and the vents are not blocked.

if going away for any length of time, consider turning your hot water tank off.

Look into an inline or %26#039;on demand%26#039; water heater.
