Fast Energy Facts

  • 30% of energy in buildings used inefficiently or unnecessarily

    Energy Consumption Breakdown

  • The average household spends nearly £1,282  a year on energy bills-nearly half on heating and cooling. A programmable thermostat, set and used properly, can save about £115  each year.

  • Average Annual household total energy emissions: 14,670 kilograms CO2 / yr or the equivalent of 378 liters of gas

  • According to the National Association of Home Builders (http://www.nahb.com/default.aspx), the average home size in the United States was 710 square meters in 2004, up from 710 square meters in 1970.

  • By replacing your home’s five most frequently used light fixtures in your home to ENERGY STAR qualified ones you can save about £42  each year in energy costs.

  • 1 ENERGY STAR qualified light [bulb or fixture] prevents more than 256 kilograms of greenhouse gas emissions over its lifetime, the equivalent of keeping nearly 128 kilograms of coal from being burned.

  • If every American home replaced their 5 most frequently used light fixtures or the bulbs in them with ones that have earned the ENERGY STAR, we would save close to £5 billion each year in energy costs, and together we’d prevent the greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions from nearly 10 million cars.
