Friends, today in this article we will learn about the use of tariff system to reduce electricity bills. I am going to give information about all this in a very good way. So let’s start.
Use of tariff system to reduce electricity bills
Electricity bills are calculated based on the consumer’s electricity consumption and the prevailing electricity tariff. The electricity tariff is chosen by the consumer as per his convenience, depending on the electrical load and number of units.
Electricity bills can be reduced by choosing the right tariff system, these tariffs are prepared keeping in mind the consumers and electricity supply companies. At present, electricity consumers lack knowledge of electricity tariff, so efforts are necessary to conserve energy or reduce bills.
The rate of electricity production is different in every state, hence their tariff rates are also different. Similarly, high load consumption – power factor can be prevented from reaching the minimum by the consumer using power factor tariff, which reduces the loss of electricity and also reduces the cost per unit.
Day-off time, peak-off time tariff should be used to reduce electricity bills
Use of energy efficient appliances to reduce electricity bills
While purchasing electrical appliances, its price and the electrical energy consumed by it are not taken into consideration, whereas this energy consumption is estimated by the energy consumed by them. Reducing energy consumption reduces electricity bills, so if energy consumption is tagged while purchasing appliances, then the understanding of consumers towards the appliances increases.
There are some types of appliances which are low in cost but consume more energy. This increases the electricity bills.
BEE, an organization established by the Indian Electricity Boards for energy conservation, gives star rating to every appliance based on its energy efficiency. This star rating is divided from 1 to 5 stars. Here 1 represents low energy efficiency, while 5 represents the highest energy efficiency.
Along with reducing electricity consumption, electricity bills can be reduced by including the following points in the tariff-
- Use of TOD (Time of Day) tariff
- Adjustment of reactive power
- reduction in peak demand
- power factor improvement
