LIVE SIMPLY Tip of the Week   Avoid leaving appliances on standby.  On average UK households spend £35 a year powering appliances left in standby mode.  This is the energy used by certain appliances when not in use and not switched off at the plug. As well as standby power, other new additions to the average household’s collection of electrical goods such as broadband modems, broadband routers, digi-boxes and telephones use low levels of electricity when not in use. These are not items that we tend to think to turn off, but can gradually go on to consume a great deal of electricity over the year. Also avoid leaving lights switched when areas aren’t in use. If everyone switched off their appliances & lights the country could do away with one or more Nuclear Power Stations!
