- Switch off appliances on standby
- Replace old whitegoods with new ones that rate at least three or four stars

- Turn off your second fridge
- Invest in a quailty solar system (from Solar Shop Australia of course!)
- Switch your hot water system to solar
- Set your heating thermostat to a comfortable 20°C, and no higher
- Set your cooler no lower than 24°C, and use a fan.
