Simple Tips To Cut Down Your Energy Expenses – Green Energy Tips

Sustainable, Renewable Energy is an amazing gift from Mother Nature, but it is not an affordable luxury for everyone. There is one great way to save up for your alternative energy source and that is by staring to limiting your home or business energy consumption now.

You can start with these simple tips for cutting down your energy expenses. Just follow these green energy tips and reduce your energy expenses.

1. Invest in energy efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs. Don’t just replace one or two bulbs, replace them all and turn off lights when not in use or find lower wattage options (instead of using the 4 bulb fixture above the sink, use the single bulb in the ceiling light).

2. Turn off all your electronics when they are not in use. This goes beyond hitting the power button. If you have an extra power strip, it can save a bundle to use if for your electronics (especially those that require a remote and are in a constant energy use state of stand by). Simply switch off the power strips when the components are not in use.

3. Use ceiling fans to circulate air and to make A/C more efficient.

4. Change filters on A/C and heating units regularly to increase efficiency and to have cleaner indoor air quality.

5. Air-dry your clothes and dishes. If you don’t like the feel of air-dried clothes, try a combination of a quick 15-minute dryer cycle and then a line dry to finish it off. Run the dishwasher for a wash cycle only and then open the door for the full air-dry effect, eliminating the steam or heated dry cycle and saving precious energy.

Just give it a try; you can cut down the energy expenses in a great way (about 70 to 80%). Have a look at DIY Home Made Energy that saves hundreds of dollars per month on your electricity bill.
