Here are the devices that should be turned off in the evening to save energy

According to experts, most people unnecessarily leave their devices plugged in overnight. By remaining connected to the power grid, they still consume electricity. Until you pull the plug, the meter ticks away!

If you want to save electricity, we recommend that you always turn off your plasma TV before going to bed. According to experts, it is by far the device that consumes the most energy at home. Remember, even if your TV is turned off, it continues to consume electricity. With this simple daily gesture, you will save some money.

Another device to keep a close eye on is your desktop computer, which also consumes a lot of electricity. To reduce your bill, if possible, we recommend replacing it with a laptop. But even in the latter case, don't forget to unplug the cable every day, just like your cell phone, to cut costs.

The main energy-consuming culprit is the freezer. Its energy costs are very frightening, especially when the appliance is running 24 hours a day. Depending on the volume, energy class, and type of model, an average freezer can consume between 100 and 500 kWh per year. To avoid possible overuse, and if there is very little food in it, it is better to unplug it more often and store food in the freezer of the refrigerator.
