Getting started 

Top tips

• Switch off equipment
  Leaving a single computer and monitor switched ‘on’ for 24 hours-a-day will cost over £50 a year. Switching it off and using ‘stand-by’ features when you are not using it could reduce this to £15 a year.  Doing this may also prolong the lifespan of the equipment.
• Good maintenance
  Equipment which is poorly maintained will not operate efficiently and will need more energy.
• Speak to your colleagues
  Make sure everyone knows that saving energy will help the company.  Ask your colleagues for their ideas on how you could all save energy.
