1. GREEN CITIZEN’S GUIDE – I USE LESS ENERGY 1
The price of electricity in Greece rises every year (Eurostats: price per kWh increased by 102% compared to 2002 and
by 10% compared to 2012). On the same time, the easy access to electricity and the
increase of electrical devices in our lives pushed the power consumption up. Greek
Households' consumption in electrical energy is continuously rising (Eurostats: by 21% in
the last decade). This means that energy becomes an overload on households' budgets
while in parallel their income is decreasing. Knowing that renewable energy sources
participate by only 9.2% of the national production, the rest is produced from plants
which significantly deteriorate the environment. The phenomenon of electrical waste is
an important point the ecological consciousness fights against and for which it proposes
easy and effective solutions.
To reduce the Carbone footprint, the reduction of energy consumption is mandatory. Where to start? To start and
have the optimized impact one must start where one consumes the most of the energy at HOME.

To reduce the electricity consumption can be achieved easier by acting on many different sources consumption.
