Energy saving tips for holiday lights and décor

The holidays may be brighter this year but energy use matters. Federal officials urge tasteful, not wasteful, decorative lighting with fewer lights and lower wattage. Outdoor displays should focus on one or two features, such as a tree or front door, with milder bulbs. An outdoor string of 50 bulbs for five hours daily adds about 56 cents weekly at three cents per kilowatt hour. Indoor lighting favors low wattage cool or midget bulbs. twinkle lights use about half the power. Turn outdoor displays off early for safety and energy savings.
