Energy saving tips in times of COVID 19

We are living in unprecedented times. Covid-19 has disrupted the lives and livelihoods of millions around us. This is a time for being prudent on all financial fronts; be it personal or business. It’s a time for us all to reevaluate all expenses, especially those that are recurring in nature.

Ever wondered what you can do to cut down on your energy bills and make your business more energy efficient? We at Australian Utilities are here to support you.

Here are simple ways you can save energy at your workplace.

• Use as much natural light as possible during the day.
• Switch on artificial lights only if required.
• Buy energy-efficient lights and equipment.
• Switch off lights when not in use. E.g. Turn Off Meeting/Conference room lights when not in use.
• Switch off all equipment when not in use or the end of the day. A lot of energy is consumed just by leaving equipment plugged in.
• Use motion sensor lights in bathrooms and other rooms that are in use intermittently.
• Get everyone to contribute and encourage them to take responsibility. It’s not just good for your business; it’s great for the environment too!

A few tweaks in usage and small changes in habit can help in making a reasonable difference in your energy bills.

With one simple step, you can get your current plan evaluated to see if you are spending more than you should on your energy.
