Energy efficiency goes hand in hand with renewable energy as a sustainable energy practice.  This is because the efficient use of electricity makes it easier for us to meet our energy needs with renewable resources.  Efficiency is an especially important consideration for any residential renewable energy application.  Since the cost of generating electricity is greater than the cost of saving it, investing in efficiency measures can save a lot of money.  These measures may take the form of something as simple as replacing your light bulbs with more efficient models.  They can also be something more involved such as taking into account efficient design and construction practices when building a home.  Below you will find a number of tips for making energy efficient changes both to habits and to the home.
