Question

Give five ways in which you can save energy at home?

Answer 1

Five ways in which energy can be saved at home:

→ Switching off lights, fans and other electrical appliances when not in use → By seeing to it that

electrical devices are operating efficiently; for example, defrosting refrigerator regularly and not

keeping the refrigerator door open for longer than necessary

→ Using energy-efficient devices such as fluorescent bulbs and tubes

→ Using energy efficiently while cooking; for example, keeping the lids of pans on while cooking →

Unplugging electrical devices when not in use prevents leakage of electricity; thus saving energy.
