Of course we can all do something to try and reduce our use of electricity, in an attempt to reduce our running costs.
This could be as simple as moving our washing machine / tumble drier times over to use cheaper "Off Peak" energy.
But yesterday I was speaking to somebody who has a serious lung condition, that requires him to run an electric air pump to assist with his breathing.
The machine has an electric pump that provides oxygen to help with his breathing.
He has no choice of limiting his usage, he runs the machine on peak rate or he is real trouble medically.
The same must apply to anybody running a kidney dialysis machine etc.
Spare a thought to these poor people folks
