Find routine energy waste, replace old equipment (e.g. lighting) or changing your building's insulation. • Target the opportunities you can influence personally (i.e. reduce routine waste (turn off unused equipment) or replacing inefficient equipment). • Track your progress and see how well your energy-saving efforts have worked.
