Just a ponderance... but has owning an EV or PHEV made a difference to the way you use energy at home? Its possible of course that the fact you bought into one means your already energy/planet conscious.
I thought I had already been quite energy conscious.... but since having my HS PHEV i've found myself monitoring what's left on and how we're consuming energy... being more creative with making more use of night time tariffs looking for phantom power usage. which has helped me reduce our day to day back ground use by around 50% its amazing the amount its projected to save (around £180 a yr)
I doubt I will move to solar panels as the outlay just does not seem to offer reasonable returns, but I am far more conscious of the energy I'm using at home now that I'm using a charger....
I'm curious has owing an EV or PHEV made you more conscious of home energy use?
