Work your thermostat
Electric thermostats can be programmed so that the A/C isn’t on when you don’t need it. Set the thermostat at 28°C (82°F) before you leave for work in the morning and at 25°C (77°F) when you get home.
Live off-peak
In many cities, such as Toronto, electricity usage is calculated on a time-of-use rate. Go online and determine when your off-peak hours are and run your dishwasher, washing machine and dryer at these times. Often, electricity rates are the lowest early in the morning, at night and on the weekends.
