Lighting

• Switch off lights when you leave the room. It is a myth that switching lights on and off uses more energy than leaving them on.

• Use low energy light bulbs - they reduce the energy you spend on lighting by 80% and last up to 12 years

• Make the most of natural lighting by keeping your blinds open.

• Motion sensors for outdoor lighting can be a good way to keep spotlights turned off when they’re not needed.
