Interesting to see it really seems like everyone across the board used less and less energy.

What did you all change? Any specific tools or tricks?

Personally I didn’t even change my heating level but just used the timers a lot more with sharper cutoffs. And I did use smart plugs between my media appliances and my pc to make sure they are off when I leave the house, as well as being less casual about turning off the lights in rooms that I’m not in. Compared to 2019 (so before more WFH) that’s like a 20% savings on gas, and 15% on electricity for me.

    Thanks for the tip. Looks subscription based though and with an insane price as well.

      Yeah, forgot to mention that, although the subscription is fairly cheap ATM for 25€ per year which more than makes up for the savings. The devices are definitely on the more expensive side but have always worked flawlessly and the interface is well designed and polished with some very nice features to help you forecast costs.

        Oh, than I seem to have misread or misinterpreted the €8 per month advertised on their site.

          Yeah, just checked and it’s 3€/month or 25€/year, that is if you need the geofencing, which let’s be honest it’s half the interest in a product like this.
