Energy Conservation Tips

• Change your conventional light bulbs to compact fluorescent lights (CFLs).  CFL consumes one-third of the power than regular bulbs.  10000 MW of power would be saved if CFLs were used to lighting homes in India.

• Always keep ACs at 24^oC, the optimum temperature to keep cool.

• Switch off appliances from the plug point when not in use.

• Banish the computer monitor’s “screensaver” and “sleep” modes rather switch off the monitor when not in use.

• Choose personal lighting of lower wattage instead of common lighting of higher wattage.

• Don’t unnecessarily use artificial light.  Use natural light when you can.

• Use electricity effectively from 10AM to 8PM.

• Switch off AC, lights and fans when leaving a room.

• Use stairs instead of lift, when you have to walk up one floor or walk down three.

• Last and most important, always insist on buying BEE certified efficient star rated electrical appliances.
