Simple product substitutions and new habits give customers the power to reduce costs without sacrificing holiday spirit.
Here are easy ways to save energy this holiday season:
- Set thermostat for savings. Save 2% of your heating bill for each degree the thermostat is lowered. (If the turndown lasts a good part of the day or night). Turning down the thermostat from 70 degrees to 65 degrees saves about 10%.
- Upgrade lighting. LEDs use at least 75% less energy and can last up to 40 holiday seasons. Use a timer to turn off lights before going to bed.
- Insulate electric water heater. The average household spends more than $250 per year on water heating. It's the second largest energy expense behind heating and cooling.
- Stop drafts in their tracks. Save up to 10% on annual energy bills by reducing drafts and saving energy by sealing holes around pipes, wiring, vents, or recessed lights with spray foam.
- Microwave and save. Reheating leftovers in a microwave takes less time and uses up to 80% less energy than a standard oven.
