As on all social media, we post questions exactly as we receive them. They are then translated.
Our answer
We cannot answer your question precisely because several variables that have an impact on the annual cost are missing, such as the number of hours of use and the wattage of the bulbs used.
For your outdoor lighting, we recommend using ENERGY STAR® qualified LED bulbs or light fixtures, which typically use 85% less electricity than incandescent bulbs. To maximize your savings, you can also install movement detectors.
We provide tools on our Web site to estimate how much energy is consumed by various appliances.
