Your home is the largest investment of your life. Apart from buying a house, you have to maintain the house which involves cost on a regular basis.
Besides the initial cost, a home is a series of operating systems that use energy and by taking care of those systems in a proper manner you can save much of the cost. Your cost gets multiplied if the systems aren’t efficient, or if your home is over 10 years old, then perhaps you should think of updating those systems. New generations of Energy Star appliances, heating and air/systems, and environmentally friendly insulation can bring your cost down to a great extent.
Most of the energy savings can be initiated with simple upgradation of appliances. The initial cost of upgrading may be on the high side but you can save a lot once you own an energy efficient home.

3. Introduction
The way we live in and use our houses has changed forever. Without a
doubt, the kitchen is one of the most important spaces in our homes. With
so much attention on sustainability, it is important that we build this space
with the environment in mind.
Energy consumption and bad ventilation are among the most important
challenges we face in the modern kitchen. Because of the amount of
appliances we use, kitchens tend to be the most energy intensive spaces in
most UK households.
Following our recommendations will help you to create a kitchen that is both
environmentally friendly and energy efficient.

4. Benefits
One of the benefits of running an efficient kitchen is the impact it has on
your carbon footprint. There are also several other advantages to making
your kitchen more sustainable:
Energy savings as a result of less use of power and a better use
of natural light
Health benefits that come with having a brighter, airier working
space
Contributing to an environmentally friendly planet
Reduces waste going into landfill sites
Make us more aware of the benefits of making ‘green’ choices in
the future

5. Key Ideas
Whether you’re having a new kitchen fitted or making your old one more
sustainable, following these tips can make the process much easier:
Insulate your kitchen walls and floors
Install your work surfaces near a natural source of light.
Cooking in the daylight will save electricity
Consider swapping your hot water tank for a boiler – this way,
water will be heated only when you need it, as opposed to
staying hot the all the time
Use your windows more often - they are the most efficient
method of airing the room
Use artificial light only when necessary and install efficient,
energy saving light bulbs
Use eco-friendly washing up liquid

Compare gas and electricity prices and search for offers
6. Appliances
Fridges and freezers are among the least energy efficient appliances in our
households. When replacing your old appliances you should keep in mind:
Energy efficiency
- A++ appliances are up 40% more energy efficient than the
average appliance
- A+++ appliances are up to 60% more energy efficient than
the average appliance
Water efficiency
- Modern dishwashers use less water and less energy to heat
that water
- Find out more about water saving habits

Reliability of the appliance
7. Appliances
There are a few ways you can make your old fridge and freezer work more
efficiently:
Place it away from the direct sunlight or any other source of
heat, such as a radiator or the oven
Keep your freezer full. It is easier to cool solid food than
empty space. Fill bottles with some water and put them into
your freezer if necessary
Let food cool down before putting it into the fridge
Set the right temperature: 3-5 °C for the fridge; -15 °C for
the freezer
Leave some space between appliances and kitchen walls to
allow space for air to circulate around the coils at the back of
the appliance

properly. A broken seal might force the fridge to use even
more electricity
8. The Payoff
Making your kitchen more energy efficient does more than just reduce your
carbon footprint. It also saves you money on your gas and electricity bills.
According to The Energy Saving Trust, you could reduce your electricity and
gas bills by 43%, depending on the shape, size and features of your kitchen.
