A quick energy-saving tip you can do at home...

Your phone, tablet or TV still uses energy on standby. Avoid paying for energy you don’t use by unplugging them when you can. On average, the UK household has 11 devices that are used regularly. You can save around £55 a year just by remembering to turn off your devices and appliances when you’re not using them. You could also think about getting a standby saver or smart plug that allows you to turn all your appliances off standby automatically.

One habit most people seem to fall into is how we charge our mobile phones. Many people in the UK will put their mobiles on charge when they go to bed. Most smartphones now have the ability to charge to 100% within an hour or two and there is no need to have your phone charging throughout the night. As well as draining your energy it also damages your device battery.
