There are some new advanced technologies that many still don’t know about. They are precisely the ones that can make a difference in saving home electricity. One of the largest consumptions produced on Earth.

Because if solar or wind power is the solution for the renewable and economical energy, efficiency and energy conservation are the solutions to reduce consumption.

Hence energy management has become the new technological challenge of the sector.

Efficiency is a constantly growing market, reaching $221 billion in 2015 with enormous potential that is not fully exploited.

So it is good to know that it is possible to reduce the energy demand and the related carbon production from fossil fuels, resulting in lower CO2 emissions, thanks to the use of smart and efficient technologies.

It is amazing how much some electronics are able to consume less.

I’m not talking about artificial intelligence: in fact, when AI is integrated, I believe there will be an additional ability to consume less.

THE INTERNET OF THINGS

By 2030, the goal is to reduce CO2 emissions by 55%: it means implementing more than a simple improvement in energy efficiency, without which having clean sources of energy will not be enough.

A push in this direction is given by the Internet of Things, which is now a standard component for most of the innovation projects in buildings, both residential and non-residential.

The ability to network objects and devices is at the heart of all the benefits provided by the IoT, the Internet of Things.

This allows you to collect data and information, monitor connected devices remotely, control objects efficiently, and so on.

The applications of this technology are wide, including the ability to monitor energy consumption and expenses, making them particularly suitable for reducing energy costs or implementing energy audits.

Once the data has been collected, it can be processed and modeled by special software, which returns the information you need.

However, there are already some devices and appliances that are very smart and provide great support and advancement in this challenge.

1. INTELLIGENT THERMOSTAT

A programmable thermostat is one of the best ways to save energy in your home.

It allows you to set specific temperatures for different times of the day and night, so you don’t heat or cool your home when no one is around.

A smart thermostat can save you up to 30% on your energy bill, according to the US Department of Energy.

2. LED LAMPS

LED bulbs are much more efficient than traditional incandescent ones.

They use about 75% less energy and last 25 times longer. This means big savings on your electricity bill and fewer bulbs to buy over time.

As you can see, it’s something very simple, but not everyone has applied to their chandeliers yet. Because they may not know how much savings they could have.

3. REFRIGERATORS THAT KNOW OUR HABITS

Most people know that the refrigerator is one of the most energy-consuming appliances in the house.

The good news is that refrigerators are now on the market that can help you save a lot of money on your electricity bill. These are called smart refrigerators and they use less energy than traditional refrigerators.

They have features like automatic defrost, which saves you time and energy, and a vacation mode which reduces energy consumption when you are away from home.

Still, others are able to calculate the moments when we are not at home and therefore maintain constant temperatures for hours without turning on the motor often.

The same thing they can do based on the outside temperature.
