We just got our electric bill and it was double the last one! Over £700 so we urgently need to make some cuts to our use and here are some things we will try:
Turn off appliances rather than putting them on stand by.
Consider changing your appliances to more energy efficient versions.
Wash clothes at a lower temperature.
Make sure fridges and freezers are clean and set at the right temperature.
Boil the right amount of water and use the kettle rather than heating on the hob.
Open curtains and clean lampshades to increase light.
Use a microwave rather than the hob where possible.
