Energy-Saving Appliances: Lower Your KPLC Tokens Without Giving Up Comfort
Quick answer

Water heating, ironing, cooking and fridges use the most electricity in most Kenyan homes. Big savings come from an inverter fridge, LED bulbs, a pressure cooker or air fryer instead of long oven or hotplate cooking, a solar water heater, and switching off appliances at the wall.
