SLC32-W1 || Real Life Problem Solving Challenge: Save Electricity At Home
Hello..!!
My Dear Friends,
I am @tanvirahammad10 from #Bangladesh 🇧🇩
What are two electrical appliances in your home that use a lot of electricity? Explain with original pictures.
Among the various electrical appliances used in our homes, air conditioners (ACs) and refrigerators consume the most electricity.
Air conditioners (ACs):
ACs are used to maintain a comfortable environment in the hot weather of Bangladesh. Especially in summer, ACs have to be kept on at different times of the day and for long periods of time at night. An AC usually uses much more electricity than other household appliances. The lower the temperature of the AC is kept and the longer it is run, the higher the electricity consumption. Therefore, it is one of the most electricity-consuming appliances in our homes.
fridge :
Fridge are an essential electrical appliance in our daily lives. They are used to store food, fruits, vegetables, and other daily necessities. The fridge is on 24 hours a day, so it uses electricity regularly. Although its electricity consumption at one time is not as high as that of ACs, its total electricity consumption at the end of the month is significant due to being on all the time.
What two methods do you use to reduce electricity consumption? Show at least one practical method with a selfie.
I regularly follow a few methods to save electricity. The two most effective methods are—
1, Turning off lights, fans, and other electrical appliances when not needed

We often leave lights or fans on even after leaving the house. This wastes electricity unnecessarily. I always try to turn off lights, fans, and other electrical appliances before leaving the house. Although it is a small habit, it saves a lot of electricity in the long run.
2, Using natural light during the day
If there is enough sunlight during the day, there is no need to turn on electric lights. I keep windows and doors open so that enough natural light enters the house. As a result, I do not have to use lights during the day and the electricity consumption is reduced.

Have the two methods you use to reduce electricity consumption resulted in a reduction in your electricity bill or not? Explain
Yes, due to these two methods I have used, the electricity consumption has decreased somewhat and its positive impact has been noticed in the electricity bill.

Earlier, lights and fans were left on unnecessarily many times, resulting in excess electricity consumption. But now, by consciously turning them off, the waste has reduced. Similarly, using natural light during the day has reduced the use of electric lights. As a result, the monthly electricity consumption has been reduced.
Although the amount of reduction in electricity bills is not very much, maintaining these habits regularly is gradually saving electricity and saving money. In addition, it also plays an important role in preserving the environment by reducing electricity waste.
What is the easiest habit for you to save electricity?
My easiest and most effective habit for saving electricity is to turn off the lights and fans when leaving the house.

This does not require any additional money or technology to do this. It is possible to do it with just a little awareness. Following this habit every day can save a significant amount of electricity. I think that every person should develop this habit, because small awareness can bring big changes.
What advice would you give to others to save electricity so that they can reduce their electricity bill and save money?
Electricity is a very important resource in our daily lives. Therefore, it is our responsibility to ensure its proper use. To reduce electricity bills and save money, I would give the following advice to others
★Lights, fans and other electrical appliances should be turned off when not needed.
★Natural light should be used as much as possible during the day.
★Energy-saving LED bulbs should be used.
★The AC temperature should not be kept too low and should be used as needed.
★The refrigerator door should not be opened repeatedly and should not be left open for a long time.
★Mobile chargers, TVs and other devices should be switched off after use.
★All family members should be made aware of the importance of saving electricity.
Finally, saving electricity not only saves money personally, but also plays an important role in protecting national resources. Therefore, we should all use electricity consciously and take effective steps to prevent waste. Through this, we can build an economical and responsible society.
