Mumbai, April 23 (NationPress) Adani Electricity has called on its customers to remain cool while being conscious of their energy consumption during the intense summer season.
Increased reliance on cooling systems can lead to escalated electricity costs due to moving into higher tariff brackets, according to the Adani Group.
“By effectively managing energy usage during peak summer, customers can enjoy lower bills and lessen their environmental footprint. Minor adjustments in daily routines can yield significant savings and promote a more sustainable lifestyle,” stated a spokesperson from Adani Electricity.
During extreme heat waves, power consumption typically spikes, which can dramatically affect monthly electricity bills.
“We urge all users to utilize electricity wisely and adopt energy-saving measures to keep expenses manageable. Small, regular changes can culminate in substantial long-term savings and foster a more eco-friendly lifestyle,” the company noted in a statement.
The organization also provided advice on how to combat the heat while minimizing electricity costs.
Set your air conditioning unit to a moderate setting (approximately 24 degrees Celsius) and utilize ceiling fans to improve cooling efficiency. Consider investing in energy-efficient models or programmable thermostats to adjust consumption based on occupancy.
Take advantage of cooler mornings and evenings by opening windows for ventilation. Keep blinds or curtains drawn during the hottest parts of the day to obstruct direct sunlight.
“Upgrading to appliances with superior Energy Star ratings can significantly lower electricity usage. Run washing machines and dishwashers during off-peak hours to minimize overall energy expenses,” the company advised.
Many electronic devices consume power even when turned off, contributing to what is known as “phantom” energy consumption. Unplug chargers and devices when not in use or utilize power strips with built-in switches to disconnect multiple devices at once, it added.
Additionally, maintain air conditioners, refrigerators, and other appliances to ensure they operate at optimal efficiency, regularly clean or replace air filters, and schedule professional servicing as needed.
