Solution

  1. We should open windows and curtains so that natural sunlight can enter the house.
  2. We should switch off electric lights and bulbs during the daytime when enough sunlight is available.
  3. Houses and buildings should have large windows, ventilators and skylights to make maximum use of daylight.
  4. We can use solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity.
  5. We can also use solar water heaters, solar cookers and solar lamps instead of electrical appliances.

Thus, by using sunlight wisely during the day, we can reduce the use of electricity and save energy.
