Today's Energy Insight

How to Save Energy with Holiday Lighting

  • Use Fiber Optic Decorations Fiber optics are the ultimate in energy efficiency. In most cases, they use a single light bulb.
  • Switch to LED Light Strands and Decorations LED lights use 90% less electricity than regular holiday lights
  • Limit the Time Lights are On Wait until dark to turn on your lights. Six hours or less a day is a good goal. Have trouble remembering to turn them off? Set a timer.
  • Turn Off Room Lights When the Tree is On The lights on your tree should provide more than enough lighting to navigate around the room.
  • Decorate with Candles Set up luminaries or ice candle holders outside. Lit candles throughout your home achieve a beautiful glow without adding to your electric bill. Just remember, SAFETY FIRST when it comes to decorating with candlelight.
