[EN] My personal power challenge goes on!

Facts Year 1:

TV/Modem/Router/HiFi/Phone = 0,868 kWh / Day
Computer/Peripherials = 1,805 kWh / Day
Fridge = 0,545 kWh / Day
Cooking/Washing/Light/Others = 0,907 kWh / Day

Overall: 1505,625 kWh

Facts Year 2:

TV/Modem/Router/HiFi/Phone = 1,050 kWh / Day --- (Bad! I watched too much TV!)
Computer/Peripherials = 1,729 kWh / Day --- (Good! More sports, No quadratic eyes!)
Fridge = 0,444 kWh / Day --- (Perfect! Better use of the fridge lowers consumption!)
Cooking/Washing/Light/Others = 1,074 kWh / Day (Bad! Too much sports produces more sweaty clothes *gg*)

Overall: 1568,405 kWh (Ok, you can say overall I kept the level, but that's not the target!)

Planned for Year 3:

1. Stop watching TV! (Actually, I did so for the last 2 or 3 months already)

2. Stop using the PC when it isn't necessary. My notebook consumes a lot less energy!

3. Turn off Modem and Router at night and when PC is not in use, this alone will save around 117,53 kWh!

4. Make better use of lights to reduce light power consumption by at least 50 kWh (this will be tough though).

In year 3 I will reach a power consumption of <1200 kWh (planned) and in year 4 I will reach the target to reduce my yearly power consumption to 999 kWh or less!

How much energy do you use in your home per person every year? Let me know, I am interested!
