How Smart Automation Cuts Your Electricity Bill

The simplest saving is switching lights off when a room is empty. An occupancy sensor does that without anyone remembering.

Schedules help with outdoor lights and with scenes that dim rooms instead of running every lamp at full brightness. LED fittings already use less power. Automation stops them being left on.

It will not shrink a bill on its own if the air-conditioning and the water heating are untouched. It does remove the waste that comes from lights, curtains and outdoor fittings left running.
