This could be your office, home, apartment, or room you are living in. Identify one energy consuming appliance in the chosen place. Identify all relevant information regarding the products (energy consumption rate (kW/h), alternatives, efficiency, usage (hr/d, days per week etc), cost of the device etc.). Find out the sources of energy (gas, coal, electricity, solar) and its cost and environmental impact (especially look for carbon emissions per kg or kWh). Provide the emission factor for the state you choose from the state selection guide below. What organisations (regulatory and/or voluntary) in Australia promote energy efficiency in general and in which way for products you use in the chosen place? Identify the opportunities to decrease energy consumption including but not limited to replacement of devices, timer switches, manual switching, programmed switches, off-peak power usage, alternative fuel etc. and select two options for improvement. Perform the cost benefit analysis (simple payback period calculation is sufficient) for three improvement options Conclude the best option of the three in (e). Provide reasoning (i.e., in terms of energy efficiency, cost, environmental benefit)
