Making small, everyday changes can lead to significant savings on energy bills while helping to reduce our environmental impact. One effective way to do this is by upgrading to LED lighting. These bulbs last up to five times longer than traditional halogen bulbs, produce the same amount of light, and use around 80% less power. Choice has been actively installing communal LED lighting across its schemes for several years, with these upgrades not only lowering electricity costs but also delivering brighter, better-quality lighting.
There are lots of simple actions you can take to deliver proven savings, with some examples below.
Implementing these small, smart changes furthers our collective goal of using less energy, reduces bills and carbon emissions, and makes our homes and communities more sustainable.
The NI Energy Advice Service is a free service which provides independent guidance and support on saving energy. They can be contacted at 0800 111 4455. Further information and advice is also available on the energy section of our website.
As Northern Ireland’s 25th Energy Saving Week draws to a close we would encourage all our tenants and stakeholders to consider any changes they can make. Choice are committed to reducing our impact on the environment and delivering cost savings for our tenants, and have recently launched our new Sustainability & Energy Strategy to provide direction to 2028, which is again available to view on our website.
