As many as 92 percent of respondents declared that they save electricity, and 82 percent% say that they attach great importance to it, according to the IBRiS survey commissioned by the Polish Electricity Association. Poles are motivated to save electricity mainly by costs, which were indicated by 84 percent of respondents. As much as 80 percent is also motivated by concern for the natural environment.
Four out of five (82 percent) respondents declare that they attach great importance to saving electricity. Almost half (47 percent) of the respondents define themselves as people who save electricity. Few less (45 percent) answer this question "rather yes". For 84 percent of Poles, the motivation to reduce electricity consumption is the cost of electricity, and for 80 percent concerned for the natural environment. Interestingly, savings as a non-motivating factor were indicated by 9 percent of the respondents, and concern for the natural environment only by 7 percent.
Ways to save electricity most often declared by people taking part in the study were using energy-saving light bulbs (92 percent of statements), turning off the light when leaving the room (89 percent), not putting warm food in the refrigerator (81 percent), and starting the washing machine when it is full (80 percent).
