According to the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the typical American home has 40 products constantly drawing
power, and those products — when not in use — represent 10 percent of residential energy consumption.

According to the Energy Department, the average U.S. home spends about $2,000 on energy cost each year. Heating and
cooling account for at least half of typical use; water heating up to 25 percent; appliances and home electronics about 20
percent; and lighting about 15 percent.
