Question

What are some ways by which electricity can be used judiciously?

Answer 1

• To reduce energy consumption in your home, you do not necessarily need to go out and purchase energy efficient products. Energy conservation can be as simple as turning off lights or appliances when you do not need them.
• Other than purchasing an energy efficient water heater, there are three methods of reducing your water heating expenses: you can simply use less hot water, turn down the thermostat on your water heater, or insulate your water heater and the first six feet of hot and cold water pipes.
• Avoid using grill while toasting bed, rather bank on a toaster for the purpose of energy conservation.
• Avoid refrigerating hot food, have it regain room temperature before the required refrigeration.
• Use microwaves for cooking food as it serves to optimize the use of electricity but avoid opening it in course of cooking.
