Hey,
turning off lights where they are not needed makes sense and is something anyone can do.
Or just install an Enpal system on the roof. Then you already have one less electrical problem in life.
How do you handle saving electricity?

The frozen mass placed in the kitchen absorbs heat energy from the surrounding air, which the heating system will then need to replace. The trick is to put the frozen items in the refrigerator. This way, you get cold transfer from the freezer to the refrigerator, and the buildingâs heating system is completely unaffected.

Donât preheat the oven A popular tip, but the pizza ends up tasting different if you bake it for 15 minutes in a cold oven instead of 10 minutes at the correct temperature. You probably wonât save much energy either, since the expensive part is heating up the oven initially, not maintaining the temperature (unless you constantly open the door).

A waterbed uses around 7,500 kWh (8,000 kWh) over 10 years, and that energy doesnât come from nowhere. Wind turbines have to be built or coal transported from Venezuela or Australia.
If someone worries that the freezer compartment uses more energy by taking frozen goods out in the morning, they could put a piece of styrofoam inside. You can do that in the fridge too.
In any case, building heating is more efficient than an oven.
The warm air produced in the kitchen when baking bread is quite humid. You have to ventilate that out. So, thatâs a zero sum.
You should always turn off lights when you donât need them. Thanks to LED technology, thatâs no problem anymore, as nothing breaks even if you switch lights on and off 500 times a day. You wouldnât leave your car running when you park it and go into a store for 5 minutes either.

Popular tip but the pizza simply turns out different if you bake it for 15 minutes without preheating the oven instead of 10 minutes at the correct temperature. Youâre right. But what does a slightly different pizza matter compared to our energy situation? These are the small steps everyone could consider mentally... and not use the word "but."
The slightly different (better) pizza is anyway just a frozen fast food version and has little to do with a proper pizza from an Italian restaurant.
I have always put the frozen option straight from the fridge into the cold oven. After all, I want to eat it sometime and not wait forever. My wife says that the product is rubbish and pizza should always be homemade, but sometimes I just like it that way.

my wife always says, "we have LED lights, so it doesnât cost anything^^"

A mother had left her car running on a slope and left the sibling in the child seat while she went to pick up the other child. For various reasons, that wouldnât even occur to me. Not least because anyone could just get into the car and drive off with my child. 🤨

A slightly soggy frozen supermarket pizza from an oven that wasnât preheated can actually taste quite good. Maybe it gives me some nostalgic student vibes or something.
