1 Silent Timer Mode Saves Energy and Money
Household appliances like microwaves, ovens, and rice cookers often have a timer mode. However, even when the set time has elapsed, these appliances continue to consume electricity. For example, a plugged-in microwave can still consume about 108W of power, even when not in use.
2 Reduce Energy Consumption of Desktop Computers
Many people leave their laptops plugged in even when the battery is fully charged, assuming that the laptop will switch to battery power. However, laptops still consume about 96W of power per day, even when not actively in use. Standby mode can consume even more energy, up to 1.5 times the usual amount. To save energy, it is recommended to unplug the charger when the laptop is fully charged.
3 TVs Still Consume Energy When Turned Off
Even when the TV is turned off, it continues to consume around 24W of power per day. This standby power consumption can add up over time.
4 Pay Attention to Digital Receivers
Disconnected digital receivers can still consume about 22W of power per day. Therefore, it is important to unplug them to save energy and reduce electricity costs. Simply turning off the TV is not enough.
5 Unplug Phone Chargers to Save Energy
Phone chargers, when plugged into an electrical outlet, can consume about 1.2W of power per day, regardless of whether a phone is connected or not. Although this may seem insignificant, unplugging the charger when not in use can lead to long-term energy savings.
