    Why is it important to save energy
    How does one use less
    electricity
    What I can do to save energy
    Saving energy means decreasing the
    amount of energy used while achieving a
    similar outcome of end use. Using less
    energy has lots of benefits You can save
    money and help the environment.

    Therefore, using less energy


    helps us to preserve these
    resources and make them last
    longer in the future.
    Why is it important to save energy?

    If people use less energy,


    there is less pressure to
    increase the available supply
    of energy, for example by
    constructing new power
    plants, or by importing
    energy from a different
    country.
    One of the pillars of the fight against
    energy dependence is energy saving.
    Energy saving and energy efficiency
    effectively represent a source of energy
    production

    This involves making intelligent


    energy savings and using energy in
    a targeted way.
    Energy saving is the cheapest way
    of producing energy, so let us use it
    There are several ways to use less electricity with little effort. Some of these are
    given below:

    Priority 1: Your Geyser

    Your household geyser uses about 40 % or more of the total electricity consumption, as is
    shown in the following pie chart:

    Typical household
    electricity use
    Priority 2: Your Lighting

    Light energy forms a major part of the total energy consumed in your home. Use
    'compact fluorenscent' lights rather than normal incandescent 'bulb' lights for any
    lights which stay on longer than about 4 hours per day. These are especially good
    for outside fittings which stay on all night.
    Priority 3: Heating
    Heating is generally the third major cause of high energy consumption in your
    household.

    Insulate your ceiling. It is estimated that you can save


    half of your heating electricity bill by doing this.

    Include 'passive solar' features if you are designing a new


    house.

    Install roof hangings. These keep the summer sun out but
    let the winter sun in.
    What can I do to save energy?
    There are many sources on the web that give you ideas of
    what you can do to save energy. Here are a few ideas to get
    you started:
    Change your travel behavior , think more in terms of public transportation, if
    possible, walk or ride your bicycle instead heating, dress warmly
    Choose products of taking the car
    Reduce your house heat by 1C, keep the windows closed while that come with
    lightweight packaging
    Turn off lights and appliances when you are not using them, use energy-saving
    light bulbs
    Reuse plastic bags for shopping and storage
    Use a microwave instead of a stove to reheat food
    Use rechargeable batteries instead of disposable batteries
    Thank you for your time and consideration
