The solution here is to keep the air conditioner temperature above 26 degrees, on hot days above 38 degrees, we can use fans, just to ensure enough coolness and save 40% electricity consumption compared to the use of trench at 20-22 degrees.

Turn off electrical appliances when not in use. This is a very small action, but we still very often forget it. 

Take advantage of natural light and wind sources to read book,...
