You can replace the bulbs in your home with compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs which will save you almost upto 25%. The new version of CFL's provide softer light than the original CFL's which can provides a soothing environment, these appliances also last longer.Use ENERGY STAR appliances such as refrigerator, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer etc. wich can help you save a lot of energy. Replacing your current appliances with ENERGY STAR rated appliances, you can save a lot.

Using Occupancy sensors that can detect people’s presence in a busy home with lots of people can actually save power. There are some cool sanitary products such as bidets, and urinal sensors.

Using solar water heater can save energy consumption to a greater extent at homes and offices. The beneficial solar power can be used to cook food and also to power on various other electrical appliances. Using zero candle bulbs instead of incandescent ones will require less energy.

The best way to reduce water wastage at home is to use small faucets in Kitchens, bathrooms and other areas having water outlets. Implementing rainwater harvesting can be very benevolent in providing surplus of water during hard times.
