Leaving your electronics in standby mode can waste energy. Devices like computer monitors, printers, shredders, and televisions continue to consume energy even when not in use. To prevent this, consider using a power strip for devices that are frequently used together, such as those in your entertainment center. With a power strip, you can easily shut down all devices with one switch. Smart plugs can also help by allowing you to schedule when devices turn on and off, even when you’re away from home.
