Got a heat pump, tbh the best single energy saving thing I could do is switch to gaming on a steamdeck. That may even take around 1/3rd off my already low energy bill. Maybe get a fairly low spec and low energy usage mini PC. How much do you really need to run Rimworld, Factorio or CDDA?
The idea of having 2 PCs for my own gaming seems odd, higher hardware costs but it may pay for its self in energy savings. Should get a meter to check what my PC actually uses when running these games though. Or just drop higher end games entirely?
If you have an electrical hot water heater, you can put it on a timer.
People who are already living low-energy lifestyles can’t shift as much demand, but enough can to make it a big deal
