Energy is wasted in our homes through a combination of carelessness (e.g. leaving 

lights on and or electrical equipment on stand-by) and inadequacies in building 

design (e.g. insufficient loft and wall insulation). In fact, most households could save 

up to £350 a year if they were more energy efficient.
