KVAR and Conservation

Conservation is reduction in consumption.  Many conservation practices involve behavioral changes. One example of conservation is turning off unnecessary electrical equipment, appliances and lights. 

 
Energy conservation, while effective, creates changes to Lifestyle.

Conservation practices include turning off lights or reducing lamp wattage size.  If you are reading, studying, or doing close tedious work, reducing the amount of lighting in a room is not practical.  
 
Another example of conservation is adjusting your thermostat.  To people with health issues, reducing the amount of air conditioning in their home is not an option.  People suffering with Asthma, allergies, COPD and other ailments have better quality of life living in an air conditioned environment.  Others, especially those who are sick or elderly, need their home to be warm in winter months.  
  
Reducing lighting for a room and changing home thermostat settings to less comfortable temperatures and are examples of conservation, and they involve a change in Lifestyle.

Power Companies have Programs and Smart Meters to help you decrease power consumption.   

"What do the Power Companies think about Kvar?"
 Electric Companies use the same technology on their lines, to save them money. Here's what they would rather did not know.

Power Companies have Programs in place to control your electrical consumption. 
Smart Meters  are being used nationally. Utility Companies use energy management programs. 

Electric cars may seem to conserve on fuel, but may not offer the solution that we are looking for, either.
