appliances description
Appliances, whether domestic, commercial or industrial, are consumers of electricity. A low carbon economy requires that these appliances be very energy efficient, both in use and when on standby. However, there are embedded carbon costs in appliances, from their manufacture and transport. These also needs to be considered when choosing an appliance. - Description added by: David Lockie (Admin)
