Energy Education: Learner activity sheets and resources Natural Science & Technology

The demand for electricity is growing. Building new power stations to increase
the supply of electricity is costly, time consuming and is only one of the
solutions.
An immediate solution is to change the way in which we use electricity – that
is using electricity wisely without wasting.
Eskom kindly asks you, the learner, to please put into practice different ways of
using electricity wisely. You are going to learn a lot in energy education. Some
of the things you will learn are:
• the changes in technology (use energy-saving lights instead of the traditional
old lights),
• how to use technology more wisely (using the switch to switch off remote
controlled appliances instead of the remote),
• other energy-wise saving tips,
• and how using energy wisely helps to care for our environment – our earth.
Do not worry, the energy education will be part of your school work. Be
alert and become an example of how to use energy wisely. Share all that you
learn with your friends, family and community. Remember to be energy-wise
wherever you are – at home, at school and in other places.
Thank you for taking care of our earth.
