‘Tis the season to celebrate and enjoy the holidays without worrying about soaring energy costs. By making a few simple adjustments to your seasonal activities, you can experience the joy of the holidays while saving money. Follow these tips to unwrap holiday savings:
- Optimize Your Holiday Lights with an Automatic Timer: Use an automatic timer for your holiday lights to customize when they turn on and off. This adds convenience and maximizes your energy savings.
- Choose ENERGY STAR® Certified Products: When purchasing new electronics and appliances, consider ENERGY STAR certified products. They have the latest features and help you save energy and money. Plus, through our Appliances Program, you can benefit from incentives on qualifying products.
- Embrace Battery-Operated Candles: Decorate your home with battery-operated candles to create a warm and festive ambiance while reducing your reliance on electrical sources.
- Optimize Lighting Usage: If your Christmas tree is in a frequently used room, like the living room, consider turning off other lights when the tree is lit. This creates ample light while reducing overall energy usage.
- Skip the Oven Preheating: For holiday main courses that require long hours of slow cooking, save energy by skipping the oven preheating step. Simply set the desired temperature and start cooking.
