We want our customers to understand their energy and water consumption and find ways to reduce it. In this section you will find tips and tools to help you save power around your home, farm or business.
How can I reduce energy use at home and work?
Did you know that every time you open the oven door, the temperature can drop by as much as 24 degrees celsius or 75 degrees farenheit. Bringing the oven back to its original temperature wastes a great deal of energy.
Did you know that leaving two 75-watt incandescent floodlights on overnight for security costs about $2.50 a month. A motion detector will turn on lights automatically as a person or vehicle approaches, then turn the lights off again when motion is no longer detected.
Did you know that automatic icemakers and water dispensers can save energy if they reduce the amount of time a fridge or freezer door is open.
How can I generate my own environmentally responsible power?
EPCOR enthusiastically supports customers who want to generate their own power. Here we provide our Edmonton customers with a good starting point to learn more about self-generation.
