Yeg.co.uk formed a unique partnership with Greenpeace to increase the amount of electricity generated from renewable sources in the U.K. They are the only company that you can buy green electricity from at no extra charge Yeg.co.uk suggest several ways you can improve energy efficiency:Insulating your home- Draw your curtains at dusk. They are a form of double glazing and help to keep heat in and draughts out. Don't open your doors and windows often in winter.
- Use rolled up blankets to keep out draughts under doors and on window sills.
- Seal off unused chimneys and flues, but always fit ventilation grilles.
Household ApplicancesThe electricity you use running your household appliances makes up a large part of your bill. So when you buy new products, choose those with economy features such as a half-grill, economy wash cycle or half-load choice on washing machines. New appliances are often more efficient than older models. For example, modern colour TVs cost less to run than old black and white sets. Your retailer will be able to tell you more about the running costs of various TVs, video-recorders, home entertainment systems and household appliances. HeatingWherever you can, buy heaters that have time switches and thermostats. Don't put a heater under a window or behind a curtain, as this wastes heat. If you have a timed heating system, make sure it's only switched on when you need it. For example, set the timer to switch off half an hour before you go out, and to come on before you get home. If you lower your room temperature by 1°C, you'll reduce your heating bills without affecting your comfort. Cooking- Never use your cooker as a room heater.
- It's quicker and cheaper to boil water in your electric kettle than it is to boil it in a pan on the cooker.
- Only put the amount of water you need in your electric kettle, but make sure the element is covered.
