Energy saving in everyday life

To show how important the conservation of energy for us is, we want to give a simple example: we will leave an incandescent bulb with a capacity of 60 watts throughout the year.8760 hours in the year.We multiply this number by the power of the bulb 0.06 kW, we get 525.6 kW*hour.That is, our bulb consumes so much electricity per year.And the most interesting thing is to guarantee your work to burn about 200 kg of coal.And if the bulb is 100 watts, more than 320 kg of coal.

But here it should be observed immediately that it is impossible to confuse the conservation of energy and energy saving, because energy conservation is a more extensive concept, which includes savings of all energy resources, mainly fossil.In the home, the energy for heating is mainly consumed, which is composed of most of the lion's energy consumed in everyday life.And if you consider that the main generation of thermal energy in Kazakhstan is carried out due to coal burning, then thermal energy saving will have a tremendous effect on the reduction of CO2 emissions or carbon dioxide that is called that.

Every year, the entire part of electricity, gas, heat, water are spent on home needs;On a large scale, the use of domestic electrified equipment is growing and the natural wear of the housing stock is underway.

Today, energy consumption is one of the most important economic indicators that largely determine the standard of living of people.In the world, a per capita electricity consumption qualification is being carried out, in which Kazakhstan occupies the 43rd position. In turn, the first 30 countries are developed countries throughout the world.In all strategic documents, the government has the task of entering the country in the 30 most developed countries in the world.This follows that the consumption of electrical energy in Kazakhstan will only grow, especially due to the domestic sector.

But what to do to reduce consumption.Unfortunately, it is impossible to stop a decrease in energy consumption in the domestic sector, everything that we can only stop the issues of its growth.And here is the most difficult problem: start with yourself.It is necessary to learn to comply with the elementary rules of the culture of energy consumption.In foreign countries, efficient energy driving courses are already taking place, so Kazakhstan needs to quickly catch up with all spaces in energy efficiency.As the practice shows, due to energy conservation, you can save up to half the payment of public services.Therefore, we have prepared some methods of energy conservation in everyday life:

The main energy resource in the house is warm and, therefore, we will begin with measures to save

1. Sealing cracks in the frames and doors of the windows;
2. Compaction of the narthex of windows and doors;
3. Window installation with multiple cameras double -cane windows;
4. Installation of the heat reflex screen (or aluminum sheet) on the wall behind the heating radiator;
5. Replacement of cast iron radiators with aluminum (preferably with valve plates);
6. Installation of the second door in the entries.

If you live in an apartment building, you must definitely consult with the administration company if the heat measurement device and the automatic heat consumption regulation system are installed at home.It will not be superfluous to make a filming of thermal images of the house for the isolation of facades and walls.

Electric power savings

1. Replace ordinary incandescent lamps with LED analogues;
2. Use local lamps when there is no need for general lighting;
3. Take it a rule, leaving the room to extinguish the light.
4. Once and for all, deal with the energy efficiency classes of appliances.Use the energy efficiency technique no lower than "a" (preferably "a+", "a ++" and "a +++");
5. Disconnect the devices that are in waiting mode for a long time.For a year, you can save around 300 kW*time or 5,000 tenge;
6. Boil in an electric totera the greatest amount of water as you want;
7. Install refrigerators in a dark and fresh place;
8. The electric stove is the most intensive device of energy in everyday life.It is necessary to ensure that the burners do not deform and are firmly adjacent to the bottom of the heated dishes, light the stove at the time of cooking and turn it off a little before what the food is ready.

If you live in an apartment building, you must achieve the installation of traffic sensors and LED lamps on the stairs and basements.In general, it is quite possible to reduce electricity consumption by 40-50% without reducing the quality of life and habits damage.

To obtain information, they would like to keep in mind that the electric stove consumes approximately 1000 kW*hour a year, the refrigerator - 400 kW*hour, TV - 250 kW*time, washing machine - 200 kW*time, etc.

Although gas is more environmentally friendly energy resources, their reserves are not unlimited.Therefore, gas savings measures are also relevant.

1. The burner flame should not go beyond the bottom of the pan, pans, teapots;
2. The deformed background of the dishes leads to an excessive gas up to 50%;
3. The dishes in which the food is prepared must be clean;
4. The oven door must firmly fit the body of the plate and not release the hot air;
5. In some cases, hot water savings also reduce gas consumption.

In general, the economic use of gas is reducing its consumption 2 times.

Another discreet resource in everyday life is water.To date, the cost of a cubic meter of cold water is not so high.As a result, many have a wrong impression that it makes no sense to save water, but we are talking about drinking water, whose reserves are limited on the planet.On the planet's scale, the lack of drinking water is a real problem that requires an immediate solution.Therefore, rational water consumption should be considered as a decent behavior in relation to natural resources.In addition, hot and cold water saving also helps reduce consumption of consumed electricity to guarantee the water supply system.Therefore, we present the main measures to save water below.

1. Install water flow meters;
2. Do not leave the crane constantly on when this is not necessary (when brushing your teeth, when washing and taking a shower, washing the dishes, etc.);
3. Install lever switches on taps instead of rotary cranes;
4. Do not turn on water with a complete current.In most cases, a small current is sufficient;
5. The shower takes 10 times less water to accept the bathroom than to bathe;
6. A significant savings in water are obtained when two buttons drain tanks are used.
7. Install the dishwasher and start more frequently in mode, which saves water and energy, manual washing significantly increases water consumption;
8. Do not use water to defrost the meat products.

In conclusion, I would like to point out that we create an atmosphere of consolation around us, because all the measures proposed above improve the living conditions and remain in the house, and we also create comfort and heat.We begin to lead an efficient lifestyle in energy, but the main thing is to be constant, make energy conservation an integral part of life.This is not so difficult, the main thing is to start and turn it into a family phenomenon for you.
