On this page you’ll find an explanation of 2 cases where temperature monitoring can help you to save money on energy.
These are: overcooling fridges and overheating rooms. I hope you’ll find this information insightful. Enjoy!
It may not sound like a big deal, but overcooling your fridges by just 1°C can actually make quite a difference to your energy costs.
1°C fridge overcooling can result in 4.5% increase in power consumption. (source)
The calculation was based on a commercial display double-door refrigerator that uses 245w, thus consequently 2146 kWh per year (source) and a €0,39 (£0,34) price of electricity per 1 kWh based on UK prices from October 2022 (source).
