Electric water heating alone is the second largest percentage of the electric portion of your utility bill; also setting your water heater thermostat to 110 - 120 degrees will save on water heating cost. Install low flow showerheads that could result in 10 - 16% reduction in water heating cost. Buy energy efficient appliances, products and lights, compact fluorescent lights use 75% less energy than incandescent lights. Turn off unneeded lights in your home and in unoccupied rooms. Plug leaks in your home by installing weather-stripping or caulk drafty doors and windows; install gaskets behind outlet covers. These items will save up to 10% in energy cost. Buy insulated drapes and shut them at night to keep the heat from escaping through the windows. Close vents in unused rooms and shut doors to them.
