Electricity bills are constantly on the rise as we keep buying more electrical goods with little attention paid to any wastage of electricity. If you try, it is easy to save an estimated £300 on your electricity bills every year.
4) During the summer dry your clothes outside rather than dryer. If you are drying your clothes indoors, use a clothes rail as using radiators blacks the heat and takes longer for the room to heat
5) Avoid putting hot or warm food straight into the fridge as this increases the energy required to cool the fridge contents. Defrosting your fridge regularly keep the freezer running well and consumes less electricity. Also, if you keep the freezer in a cool room or garage, this may reduce the electricity required to cool a freezer..
6) When washing clothes, use a low temperature setting and only wash a full load using the economy programme
Using the above tips, you will start to see some savings through reduction on your electricity bill and it would be a good idea to invest this money in energy saving products and appliances (for example energy saving light bulbs, which last 10 times longer and use 75% electricity compared to a normal bulb) to reduce your energy consumption even further.

Comparing electricity suppliers for unit prices using price comparison sites e.g. using uswitch.com) is always a good idea as it helps you save on the electricity unit prices. However, there are a few simple “no cost” things that you can do to reduce your actual units of electricity consumed. These are:
1) Turn off electric appliances (e.g. microwaves, TVs, videos, and computers) when not in use - leaving on standby consumes electricity
2) Use a dishwasher - new dishwashers use less energy and water than hand washing up
