An Energy Mystery: Electricity Vampires, or Where is the Power Going? : read more

Posted January 8th, 2009 by bromley

A 2002 study from Cornell University estimated that "vampire appliances" were costing American consumers 3 billion dollars a year in wasted energy. And today's electricity prices would probably make that cost estimate seem quite conservative.

Could Christmas be the Time when Energy Management is Most Important? : read more

Posted December 23rd, 2008 by bromley
