How to save electricity

To date, the largest amount of electricity on Earth is produced from a norridge source (burning oil, gas, stone and brown coal).The reserves of these fossils are not unlimited, so the electricity in the foreseeable future will increase in the price, unless scientists develop new cheap and very effective ways of using non-traditional energy sources (sun, wind, heat and treats).

Storage of electricity by optimizing its consumption

First of all, you should consider whether in some cases it is possible to completely abandon the use of electrical devices or reduce the time of their work.You must pay attention to the following points:

• If possible, use a day, which will increase the maximum brightness of the room.Regular window washing, raised blinds, open curtains will allow you to turn light on later, which will give a total of noticeable savings for a month.In addition, light backgrounds or colors on walls and ceiling can be returned to 80% of sunlight, while in the room noticeably easier than during the repair made in dark colors.

• The bulbs and special ceiling increase the light output of the device by 10-15%.If you use a clean chandelier with open ceiling, you can cover the bulb.
• It is advisable to buy the upper chandelier with the possibility of separating the bulk part.When browsing the television program, one lamp will be sufficient and use complete lighting when receiving guests.
• Combined lighting (saliva on the walls, floor lamps, table lamps) not only saving electricity at home, but also the way the necessary atmosphere in the premises needed atmosphere (business, romantic, pleasant) for all occasions.With the proper use of local lighting, it can generally minimize.
• The light must not burn in rooms that are not currently being used.This habit with certain efforts produce all family members for several months.If there is no one in the house or apartment, it is desirable to turn off all energy consumption devices except the refrigerator.
• Devices in standby do not consume so much electricity, but if you remember how much such devices are in the house, it will be clear that a large part of the energy is spent almost spent.For example, an ordinary speaker system in standby mode requires 11 W / hour.
• Checking and replacing old wiring will not be superfluous and in terms of savings and fire protection.The number of tins, adapters and extensions should be minimized, because their use leads to an increase in network resistance and energy loss to 30%.It is better to install a few more sockets more than replacing the wiring.

How to save on electricity using energy technologies

Almost more and more or less decent modern companies that produce household or computer equipment fight for energy conservation.In terms of growth in electricic prices, it gives them competitive advantages.

The consumer of these devices must carefully monitor new offers on the market.

• Buying electrical devices.It is necessary to interest in the class of their energy consumption, the most economical class A, A +, A ++, at least - class E, F, G. The difference between class A and G may be double.
• However, the acquisition of an energy device is only half a case.You still need to work properly.Therefore, a clogged bag in the vacuum cleaner leads to a loss of 40% electricity, about the same images with a refrigerator, which is inside covered with a layer of snow and ice.
• The insulation of the apartment or house (replacement of windows with metal -plastic, walls with foam or mineral insulation, compaction of the door, the glazing of the balcony and loggia) will better keep heat.As a result, before the start of the heating season or with insufficient heat batteries, powerful electric heaters can be used less or use to create a comfortable temperature more profitably air conditioning on heating.
• The easiest way to save electricity is a light bulb replacement with energy lamps - finding.This will require one purchase of many expensive light lamps (energy - unification of fluorescent or LEDs), but their installation pays quite fast, sometimes within a year.The luminescent "economy" consumes 5 times less than the usual "Ilyich lamp", and ice - more than 8 times.At the same time, economical lamps serve ten times longer.

How to save electricity at home, accurately considering his spending

The assistant in this issue can be devices that will give visual information on consumed energy and the possibility of its more rational use.

• Two- or three tariff electronic meter e / energy.Installation will allow energy consumed in day and night.The night tariff is about 30% lower.This is due to the need for the unloading of electric networks during the peak hour of stress and transmission of the part of the spending on "calmer" time.It is therefore profitable for the consumer that has such a counter to use energy costs (boiler, iron, dishwasher, bread washer, which can be programmed for use at certain hours.The counter must be legalized in the company's supplier.
• Light-regulator (dimmer).This device is installed instead of the switch and allows adjustment to light lamp lights.The same light can use the dimmer for the general lighting of the room, to read, watch TV or like a night light.There are also light controllers with a remote control or transfer option from several points.The advantage of Dimmer is to expand the lives of lamps, but cannot be used with all types of lighting devices.
• Impulse relay.Allows you to control lighting from different locations in the house, it is appropriate to use when you turn off all the lighting in the room by pressing one button.
• Motion sensors.They are installed in residential and office rooms, as well as in the yards.Turn on and off the light in the presence or absence of movement.
• Home Wattmeter.Allows you to measure the power of consumption of each device, frequency and voltage in the network.Using this information you can take measures to save electricity.

How to save electricity at home

The most powerful devices in the house are a refrigerator and an electric stove.People often use the same refrigerator for more than 10 years.At the same time, the technology has fallen so far forward during this time that the new cooler consumes energy in half as much as possible, so that a person, savings on the purchase of a new device, keeps losing the bills.

• The refrigerator must not be placed near the plate or heating batteries, in poorly ventilated corners and niches - it will lead to overheating and more frequent inclusion.For the same reason, the plate and pot of hot products within the refrigerator, as well as too often or a long time opening is not recommended.To save money, it is better to put a device to cool the average mode and defrost it regularly and clean off the snow and ice.
• There is no every house in each house, but where is it, the management of electrician costs behind it.But here there is an opportunity to save energy.The size of the food preparation is not smaller than the burner used, the bottom should be even.The dish is closed with a lid prepared 20-30% faster.After boiling water, the combustion temperature is best transferred to low temperature mode - it will not affect the process of preparing meals, but will reduce e / energy consumption.
• The washing machine operates the most stable on the regulatory load indicated in the instructions.Overloading or incomplete load, as well as the unjustified use of the preliminary washing function, increases electricity consumption from 10 to 30%.
• The electrician requires regular cleaning of the scale.Also, don't cook a full kettle for the future, enough water to cook a cup of tea.
• Turn on the air conditioner only with tightly closed windows and doors so that you do not cool down the street, select the device according to the technical characteristics that match the room to be cooled.There are models of converter air conditioners with reduced electricians by 50%.

This is just part of the tips to save electricity.The details can be found out in other articles in the section.However, we should not forget that resource savings do not care only for your own wallet, but also preserving the environment for children and grandchildren.

Each 100 generatur watt from electricity means 33 liters of oil, or 48 kilograms of coal, or 35 cubic meters of natural gas.If we add the problem of nature pollution from harmful emissions, it becomes clear that the use and saving of electricity is not only the private question of each consumer, but also the global problem of all humanity.
