Energy Efficiency &

Renewable Energy

Lead by Example with Smart Energy Choices


Here is a simple checklist of energy conservation and efficiency measures to use at work:

Always use Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFLs) in desk


lamps as opposed to incandescent lights.

Switch off all unnecessary lights.

Use natural lighting when possible.

When working late, use task lighting to directly illuminate


work areas.

Unplug equipment that drains energy even when not in


use (i.e. cell phone chargers, fans, coffeemakers, desktop
printers, radios, etc.)

If possible, turn off your office equipment and or computer


monitors at the end of the work day.

Use efficient ENERGY STAR® products.

Close or tilt window blinds to block direct sunlight to


reduce cooling needs during warm months.

Photocopy only what you need.

Always use the second side of paper, either by printing on


both sides or using the blank side as scrap paper.

Carpool, bike, or use mass transit when commuting


to work.

To save gas: drive the speed limit, accelerate and decelerate


slower, and make sure tires are pumped up.

Use durable coffee mugs instead of disposable cups.
