Question

What are the ways to save electricity?

Answer 1

Electricity can be saved by the following methods:

1. Switching off the electronic appliances when not in use.
2. Using energy efficiently only when required.
3. Switching to compact fluorescent lamps and fluorescent tube lights, instead of traditional bulbs to save energy. CFLs save 50-80% of the energy used by traditional incandescent lights.
4. Using solar energy- When solar energy technologies and power plants are in use, they do not pollute the air or emit greenhouse gases. When solar energy replaces or eliminates the usage of other energy sources that have higher environmental impacts, it can have a positive, indirect influence on the environment.
