If you are planning to install a small renewable energy system to\u00a0make your own electricity, such as a solar energy system, reducing your electricity loads is the first step because it allows you to purchase a smaller and less expensive system.<\/p>\n<p>First look at your utility bill. If you use more, even greater savings may be possible. \u00a0There are many ways you can reduce electricity use in your home:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Appliances and electronics\u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Purchase energy-efficient products and operate them efficiently.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lighting<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Purchase energy-efficient products, operate them efficiently, and incorporate more\u00a0day lighting\u00a0into your home will also help in conserving energy during the day.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electric space heating and cooling<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Purchase energy-efficient electric systems and operate them efficiently. Incorporate\u00a0passive solar design\u00a0concepts into your home, which include using energy-efficient\u00a0appliances. Properly\u00a0insulate and air seal\u00a0your home. Select\u00a0an energy-efficient heating system\u00a0that doesn\u2019t use more electricity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electric water pump\u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Purchase an energy efficient water pump and\u00a0operate it efficiently.<\/li>\n<li>Reduce your \u201calways-on\u201d appliances. If your home has a smart meter and you can see your hourly consumption, then examine your consumption at 3AM. \u00a0It should be significantly less than your use at 7pm. \u00a0If it isn\u2019t then you might have \u201cvampire loads.\u201d. Look for electronics that you don\u2019t use always or can switch off, or perhaps get rid of that extra refrigerator etc<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>To improve the overall energy efficiency of your home:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A home energy assessment, also known as a home energy audit, can help you understand the whole picture of your home\u2019s energy use, comfort, and safety. An assessment can help you determine how much energy your home uses, where your home is inefficient, and which problem areas and fixes you should prioritize to save energy and improve the comfort of your home.\u00a0 A home energy assessment should be your first step before making energy-saving home improvements, as well as before adding a renewable energy system to your home.<\/p>\n<p>Would you need more help etc<\/p>\n<p><em>Get in touch:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Call\/WhatsApp: +234 706 795 6193\u00a0<strong>I<\/strong>\u00a0E-mail: info@auxanosolar.com\u00a0<strong>I<\/strong>\u00a0CSR Hotline: +234 916 893 0626<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Its Energy Efficiency Day\u00a0\u26a1\ufe0f\ud83d\udca1 The aim is to make people aware of the need to reduce energy consumption by reasonable and sustainable use of energy!
