Looking to reduce your electricity bill?

It’s a common goal for many households. By making a few simple changes, you can reduce your energy consumption and save money every month.

Switch to energy-efficient appliances

Did you know that older appliances can be energy guzzlers? By upgrading to energy-efficient models, you can reduce your electricity consumption by up to 30%. Look for appliances with the ENERGY STAR label for optimal efficiency.

Unplug electronics when not in use

Even when they’re turned off, electronic devices can still draw power if they’re plugged in. This is called phantom power consumption. By unplugging devices when they’re not in use, you can save up to 10% on your electricity bill.

Switch to LED bulbs

Traditional incandescent bulbs waste a lot of energy as heat. LED bulbs are much more efficient and can last up to 25 times longer. By switching to LED bulbs, you can reduce your lighting energy consumption by 75%.

Use power strips

Power strips make it easy to turn off multiple devices at once. When you're not using your electronics, simply turn off the power strip to cut off all electrical flow. This can help you save up to 15% on your energy bill.

Adjust your thermostat

Heating and cooling your home accounts for a large portion of your electricity bill. Adjusting your thermostat just a few degrees can save you significant energy costs. In fact, for every degree you turn down your thermostat in the winter, you can save 1 to 3 percent on your bill.
