the early hours of Sunday March 27 when summer begins and watches shall forward a hour (at 02.00 will be 03.00), a change which every English household is estimated to save six euros in electricity consumption.
According to the Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving of Energy (IDEA), the potential savings in lighting by the time change may account for 5 percent of electricity consumption in lighting, or about 300 million euros .
Of that amount, 90 million correspond to the potential of English households, representing a saving of six euros per household during the period called "summer time" while the other 210 million will be saved in the buildings sector tertiary and industry, according to IDEA estimates.
To achieve these savings, the IDEA, however, recommended to perform responsible behavior at home at the time of dispensing with artificial lighting when not needed, as well as the use of efficient technologies in industrial buildings and others.
These technologies consist of photocells or light sensors that shut down or regulate the artificial lighting according to natural light provided to the area through windows or skylights.
In this sense, the IDEA has mentioned that the Technical Building Code and makes mandatory the installation of these systems in new buildings and existing lighting support for reform in the tertiary sector buildings.
The time change began to spread, albeit unevenly, from 1974, when it produced the first oil crisis and some countries decided to move their clocks to make better use of sunlight and consume less electricity and lighting.
Since the adoption of the ninth directive by the European Parliament and Council of the Union in January 2001, this change applies for an indefinite period (this policy is incorporated into English law by Royal Decree of 1 March) .
The indefinite nature of the application of the time change has taken on the grounds that "the proper functioning of certain sectors, not only the transport and communications, but also other sectors of the industry, requires stable, long term, "recalled the IDEA in a press release.
This directive establishes a permanent basis starting dates of the period of summer time and the end (when the clocks go back an hour), taking place the last Sunday in March to last Sunday in October respectively.
addition, regardless of the time change, the Ministry Industry, Tourism and Trade and the IDEA (public entity that ministry) have advised citizens to contribute to energy savings throughout the year making clever use of lighting.
"Following certain patterns or habits can afford, without sacrificing comfort, save up to 100 euros per year, and avoid polluting emissions into the atmosphere," have been secured.
Among the recommendations: using colors in the decoration of the house (the room is brighter), regularly clean light sources, as the dirt makes the proper dissemination, and picking the right light bulbs . Efe
