But there are things we can start doing for ourselves:

  • Energy efficiency, optimize the consumption
  • Energy independence through the use of renewable (eg solar thermal energy for heating and hot water)

Combining these 3 steps can achieve savings in excess of 75% …

The average annual Spanish 700 € seems to us low in the short term. Energy expenditure is to be becoming a heavy slab, so we must learn to minimize their effects that could significantly impair our quality of life.
