1. Inside Secrets to Go Green and
Save on Your Electric Bill
By Mike Young

2. Intentional Use
Instead of not thinking about what is "on" in your
house, start being intentional in your use of power. If
you are leaving a room for some reason and will not go
back into it immediately look at what you can turn off.
By switching off all appliances that are not required to
be on for even a few minutes, you can help save power
and therefore reduce your costs. This includes all
electrical appliances like TVs, fans, heaters, and also
things like lights. It may not seem like much to switch
the light off, but every little bit helps.

3. Smart Buying
• You can save significant money in lighting over a year
by purchasing compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs
and replace the incandescent bulbs in your home.
They are a little more expensive to buy but very
quickly make up for it in energy savings and use of
power.
• You can also buy the Power Save gadget which
monitors the power supply to your home and ensures
the minimum amount needed is used.

4. Use of Home Appliances
• The number of home appliances you have in your
home can affect your power usage but it is more how
you use them that can greatly increase your electricity
bill. So how can you economize on your usage?
Try these tips:
• Put a load on in your washing machine only when you
have a full load and use the minimum heat required to
get a clean wash.
• Use the geyser for the minimum time possible.

5. • Turn your air-conditioner down to minimum heat required
and the highest cool temperature that you can tolerate
comfortably. By keeping the room just warm enough or
cool enough you can save significant usage of power.
• When using your computer, switch off the monitor when
you are away from it and when not in use turn your
computer off. This has another advantage and that is in the
unlikely event of a power surge you can protect your
computer.
• By applying these quick and simple tips consistently you
can develop a very helpful habit to not only reduce your
electricity bill but to help save power for the world as well.
