Everyone is looking to save money where they can at the moment and that means thinking about our homes and where there might be a power drain. Just like food waste, some households are guilty of energy waste, according to one expert and there could be as much as £797 a year to be saved on energy bills with just a few simple checks.
Dr Steve Buckley, head of data science at Loop, was reported in Birmingham Live as saying every unit of wasted energy around your home will cost you more than 80 percent more when the price cap increase takes effect this October. He said: "Many people I speak to are really worried about their energy bills right now, and sadly the situation is not set to improve for some time yet.
"The reality is that the only way we can lower our energy bills right now is to reduce the amount of energy we use and the key to that is measuring our use. If you measure it, you can control it. If you measure it, you can see the impact of changes you make."
