Earning energy independence is no longer the headache of the statesmen alone. The masses are equally interested to learn about the ways in which they can reduce energy consumption and cut on their energy budget.

In a recent survey, international research firm Parks Associates (News – Alert) has pointed out that, more than 80 percent of U.S. consumers are interested in learning about how to cut their energy costs, 50 percent of U.S. households are very interested in an energy-monitoring device, and 80-85 percent of households are willing to pay $80-$100 for cost-saving equipment if they are guaranteed to save 10-30 percent off their monthly electricity bill.
