Efficiency
ENERGY EATERS
Many of the electrical appliances we use in the home 1) eat up huge amounts of energy. This is made worse by the 2) fact that most of them are not energy efficient. Water and heating boilers, for example, are the worst culprits. Another energy guzzler is our fridge-freezer, as it is working 24/7*. In fact, everything we use in our home, from the television to the washing machine, is using much more electricity than is necessary. So when you buy a new appliance, 3) check the labelling to find out how energy efficient the product is – even your light bulbs! An energy efficient light bulb is much cheaper to use and 4) lasts twelve times longer than a standard one. You can save up to 30% on your electricity 5) bills by using energy efficient appliances.

CHANGING OVER
In a bid to save up to 20% on energy use, the European Commission is bringing in some tough new regulations. Manufacturers will be 6) required to make their products more energy efficient. One area that has been especially targeted is the massive energy waste from appliances that have a standby mode – like TVs and DVDs – and other electrical goods that use electricity even when they’re not in 7) use. Also, there will be more information 8) available on exactly how energy efficient or not electrical appliances are. The measures could save up to 100 billion by 2020. So, what do consumers need to know?
UNPLUG IT
Have you ever 9) left your mobile phone charger plugged in even after you’ve recharged your phone? If you touch it, it will be warm. This is because it’s still using electricity, just like your TV and DVD when they’re on standby. Leaving things plugged in, or switched on while you’re not using them, is 10) costing you money and wasting energy.
MAKE A DIFFERENCE
By using energy efficient electrical goods and turning them off and unplugging them, we can help to 11) reduce carbon emissions which cause climate 12) change. So, go on – save yourself a lot of money and help save the planet as well.
1 Have you ever soon the label in the picture before? Where might you see it? What kind of information is contained in the label? What do you know about ‘energy eaters’?
2 Read the article. For gaps 1-12 choose the word to complete each gap correctly.
