Appliances left on standby like mobile phones, laptops and iPod chargers still use energy to keep them powered down. Simply switching off and unplugging items on standby is a great way to be more energy efficient and helps save around £30 a year in energy savings!
Larger items like televisions will consume more power, so if you can switch it off, you’ll be in for some big savings. If you remove your appliances from its power cable don’t forget to switch the plug off on the wall, otherwise the chargers can still use electricity.
Don’t waste it, switch it off
