Energy SavingUK Home Energy Usage 2011

We use energy everywhere in the home, from turning on the heating, watching the TV, to brushing our teeth and it is costing us more and more each year. Bringing down energy costs through energy saving is something the Council is always looking at and we want to help the residents of the Borough do the same.

Reports show that in UK homes, most energy is used on heating, hot water and running lighting and appliances. The following pages focus on these areas and have lots of energy saving tips that cost very little, will save you money and help the environment.

We recognise many people struggle to pay their bills, so along with energy saving we have added advice on switching suppliers you and where to seek further advice on managing your utility bills.
