Electricity conservation
Switch to a renewable electricity supplier
Buy A-rated electrical appliances.
Switch to energy saving light bulbs, when your old bulbs break. They last around 10 times longer than ordinary light bulbs; they will save you money and come in loads of different styles.
Items left on standby can use up to 85% of the energy they would use if fully switched on. Turn them off at the wall – it doesn’t take long.
Electric tumble dryers use a huge amount of energy. If it’s a nice day dry your clothes outside or even inside if it’s not so nice.
When using a washing machine ensure there is a full load and turn down the temperature.
If you have lights in your garden use solar powered lights that charge during the day and don’t require electricity.
Take your phone charger out of the wall. It uses energy even when it’s not charging your phone.
