Try not to leave your television or computer on standby. Televisions waste a lot of electricity each year just waiting to be switched on.
Mobile phone chargers left plugged in waste electricity and are responsible for a quarter of a million tons of CO2 every year.
If the weather if fine, you could hang clothes outside to dry (or on a drying rack indoors). If using a tumble dryer, spin dry clothes first.
If everyone boiled only the water they needed to make a cup of tea instead of filling the kettle every time, we could save electricity.
Use the washing machine when you have a full load and choose 30°C cycles – this will save you 40% compared with a 60°C wash.

Refrigerators/Freezers:

The third largest energy user in a home is the refrigerator/freezer. To cut down on costs:

Avoid using multiple refrigerators or freezers. An extra refrigerator that is hardly used can cost up to $100 a year.
Keep your freezer full. Food catches and stores cold air, reducing the workload of your freezer.
Reduce the amount of escaping cold air by opening the door once to get all your items.

Buying a new, energy-efficient refrigerator can save a lot of energy and money. When shopping for a new one:

Select the right size. Larger refrigerators may cost more to run.
Compare features and energy use. Side-by-side models use more energy than top and bottom models.
Compare operating costs using the EnergyGuide label.

Washers & Dryers:

About 90 percent of the energy used to do laundry comes from heating the dryer. To save energy and money, we recommend that you:

Use cold water to wash whenever possible and always use cold water to rinse
Adjust the water level to match each load size, especially when using hot water
Clean the dryer lint filter before each dry cycle
Do not overload the dryer
Use the auto sensor function, if available, to avoid the dryer running longer than necessary

Shop Smart

Are you considering buying a new washer and dryer?
Here are some tips to save on energy and costs:

Look for ENERGY STAR® compliant washers that offer several water temperature settings.
Compare operating costs using the EnergyGuide label for washers.
The most efficient washers save both energy and water. They also spin faster, which reduces drying time.
