The Usage Cost of Electric Appliances

By switching off or minimising the use of high-energy appliances both at home and in the workplace, you not only contribute to reducing utility bills but also mak...

Are you aware of the impact your home appliances have on your wallet? Amid the Cost of Living Crisis, every penny counts, and finding ways to save money has become essential. While energy prices are still high despite a recent drop, it's crucial to be mindful of your electricity usage. Did you know that between 9-16% of the electricity usage in homes is consumed by appliances in standby mode?

Considering this, a simple yet effective way to cut down on your electricity bill is by turning off your appliances at the plug when they're not in use. The Energy Saving Trust suggests that this small change could make a significant difference.

But it's not just at home where we can make a difference. Think about your workplace too! Offices are filled with appliances that, if left on standby, contribute significantly to energy wastage. By adopting the same practice at work, not only can you reduce your company's energy bills, but you also play a part in conserving resources and combating climate change.

Additionally, understanding the energy costs of your household and workplace appliances, as outlined below, can empower you to make informed decisions. By switching off or minimising the use of high-energy appliances both at home and in the workplace, you not only contribute to reducing utility bills but also make a positive impact on the environment.

In these challenging times, being mindful of our energy usage at home and work not only saves money but also helps create a more sustainable future. Let's make a difference by making small changes that lead to significant savings in our homes and workplaces. 

We'd love to show you how we can help make your business more sustainable, innovative, less wasteful & more charitable
