Tips to Reduce Your Electricity Bill
- Unplug standby devices — chargers, TVs on standby, and game consoles can draw 5–20W continuously even when "off".
- Switch to LED bulbs — LED bulbs use up to 80% less energy than incandescent, lasting 15–25x longer.
- Use smart power strips — automatically cut power to devices when the main device (e.g. TV) turns off.
- Optimize your air conditioner — set to 78°F (26°C) in summer; each degree lower adds ~3% to cooling costs.
- Run laundry in cold water — about 90% of a washing machine's energy goes to heating water.
- Check your refrigerator seals — worn gaskets force the compressor to work harder; replace if they fail the "paper test".
- Use time-of-use rates — if your utility offers TOU pricing, run dishwashers and dryers during off-peak hours.
