1. Use AC at Optimal Temperature
Setting your AC to 24-26°C instead of 18-20°C can save up to 24% on energy. Each degree lower increases power consumption by about 6%.
2. Star Rating Matters
When buying new appliances, always choose 5-star rated products. They may cost more upfront but save significantly on electricity bills over time.
3. Regular Maintenance Reduces Power Consumption
Dirty filters, refrigerant leaks, and worn components make appliances work harder and consume more power. Regular servicing keeps them efficient.
4. Smart Usage Habits
Run washing machines with full loads, keep the refrigerator door closed as much as possible, and use microwave instead of oven for smaller meals.
5. Unplug When Not in Use
Many appliances consume standby power even when turned off. Unplug them or use smart power strips to eliminate phantom loads.
