For 24 hours, list each time you use electricity. Include the alarm clock, ceiling fans, A/C, heater, hot water heater for showers, dishwasher, laundry, microwave, computer, cell phone or other electronic device chargers, etc. Indicate the time you used the item, including 24 hours (for the clocks, etc.). RECORD THE METER READING of your electric meter, if you have access to it, 24 hours apart, to find out how much total electricity you use in a day. RECORD THE POWER COMPANY’S NAME. ASK THEM HOW THEY GENERATE THE ELECTRICITY AND RECORD IT (this may involve making a phone call or doing research online). Reflect on your energy usage. Do you make sustainable choices? Do you try to conserve energy when possible?

Comcast power company.They told me that ways to save on power is to not use the computer... ever. As well, they also said that I should shut off the lights more often, and make sure to leave my doors closed. I always forget to leave my doors closed. I guess that it saves money to close doors. AC or something.
