Saving Energy at Home: Strategies and Technologies for Smart Consumption

10 Practical Tips to Reduce Energy Consumption

Saving energy isn’t just about lowering your utility bills—it’s a concrete step toward reducing environmental impact and improving quality of life. By adopting smart devices and making small everyday adjustments, you can optimize energy consumption without compromising domestic comfort. A conscious approach to energy use also supports global sustainability by cutting CO₂ emissions and promoting more responsible resource management.

10 Practical Tips to Reduce Energy Consumption

Adopting daily energy-saving strategies is essential to reduce utility bills and limit resource waste. Small adjustments in energy management can lead to a significant economic and environmental impact. Every action—from regulating indoor temperature to using appliances mindfully—contributes to more efficient and sustainable consumption.

01

Choosing advantageous energy rates

Consuming more during the most cost-effective time slots can reduce expenses by up to 20%.
02

Upgrade the heating system

Guarantees optimal performance while avoiding unnecessary consumption.
03

Air-dry laundry

Prefer short showers and thermostatic mixers to reduce consumption.
04

Use the dishwasher instead of hand-washing

An efficient dishwasher can reduce water consumption by up to 40% compared to hand-washing, while also ensuring more effective and hygienic cleaning.
05

Limit hot water usage

Prefer short showers and thermostatic mixers to reduce consumption.
06

Air-dry your laundry

Avoiding the use of a tumble dryer can reduce energy consumption by up to 60%.
07

Use the microwave instead of the oven

Consumes up to 70% less energy.
08

Close curtains at night

Helps reduce heat loss by up to 15%.
09

Don’t overfill the kettle

Using only the necessary amount of water can lead to savings of up to 30%.

Block air leaks

Use insulating seals on doors and windows to reduce heat loss and enhance energy performance.

Smart Technologies for Greater Energy Savings

IoT (Internet of Things) solutions represent a key innovation in the field of energy efficiency, enabling real-time monitoring and management of consumption. Thanks to these smart devices, it is possible to optimize energy use, prevent waste, and schedule the operation of household appliances more efficiently. The integration of these technologies into modern homes not only ensures economic savings, but also contributes to the reduction of environmental impact, making energy management more smart and sustainable.

Smart thermostats

Smart Technologies for Greater Energy Savings

Programmable smart thermostats, remotely controllable, can—depending on the model—manage OpenTherm boilers, dry-contact systems, fan coils, or dual-mode heat pumps. Thanks to these intelligent devices, you can:

  • Adjust the temperature and operating modes of your heating system.

  • Optimize system performance and prevent energy waste.

  • Reduce your energy bills by 5% to 10%.
