Saving money and saving the planet – these are just some of the advantages of investing in energy saving alternatives, according to lighting specialist BLT Direct.
Given the current economic crisis, investing in low energy light bulbs and other energy saving alternatives could be beneficial to both you and the planet. Steve Ellwood, Managing Director of BLT Direct, specialists in energy saving lightbulbs, low energy light bulbs and light fittings, said, “What many people haven’t quite realised yet is that it isn’t only about being more friendly towards the environment.”
“Given the credit crunch, people are having to cut back on luxuries, such as holidays, going out or simply shopping – and yet one way we could all save money year on year is by investing in energy saving lightbulbs. For example, if you had a 0.7W lightbulb which had the equivalent normal wattage of 10W and you ran it for a day, you would save £12.22 annually. That may not seem like a lot but if you had one of those bulbs in each of your rooms and passageways, that could easily save you up to £100 every year, if not more!”
This would also be helpful when considering selling or renting out your house. The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is now required by law for any buildings or properties being built, sold or those which may have been put up for rent. The idea behind the EPC is to give home owners, tenants and potential buyers information on how energy efficient the property is. The more energy saving alternatives in place, the more likely the property is to be given a higher energy efficiency rating (which of course translates to lower running costs).
