September 9, 2019 – There are many simple and free ways to save on your electric bill. One simple trick is to power down your computer when you are not using it.

• Fully powered: approximately $89
• Sleep mode: approximately $20

Below are some additional ways to save when it comes to your home computers:
• Power off monitor if you will be away from your computer for more than 20 minutes.
