ENERGY CONSERVATION

  ENERGY CONSERVATION

In this part, we do not have a so much suggestion to advice regarding the conservation. However, as an individual we can do big thing by taking small steps like simply replacing the Incandescent bulb with florescent lamp. It reduces the unnecessary wastage of energy but also save precious money. We explain this by given an example.
Let us considered the case of Mr. Ram who has a family of four. In his house, he had two bedrooms, one dinning room, a kitchen, two bathrooms, & a Veranda. Now for lighting these rooms he used four tube lights of each 40 Watts (40*4=160 W), three Incandescent bulb of each 40 W (40*3=120). So the total energy consumption for lighting the house is (160+120) W=280W. In addition, for consumption that amount of energy, electric distribution company charges near about Rs.265 per month.
Now if we replace four tube lights with four florescent lamp of each 23 Watts (4*23=92W) & incandescent bulb with three florescent of each 11W (3*11=33W). For consumption of that amount of energy, costs near about RS155 per month.
Therefore, now after replacing the bulb and tube lights with florescent lamp for lighting purpose of same house Ram babu save near about RS.155 per Annam and RS.1860.And most importantly he saves 175 Watts of precious energy per month, which turns 2100 Watts per Annam.
