Use Energy Efficient Appliances and Lighting

Electricity use makes up around half of our energy bills and a big chunk of our home's carbon footprint. Energy-efficient appliances and lighting can save up to 40% of total electricity use at home. The additional cost of an energy-efficient appliance typically pays off in 3-5 years, while energy efficient light bulbs or fixtures can pay off in 2-3 years.
