Research shows that we boil, on average, twice the volume of water needed every time we use a domestic kettle.  Boiling too much water each with the average 3kW kettle is the same as wasting the energy used by around 50 light bulbs!

The main thing that sets the British designed eco kettle apart from your bog-standard electric kettle is that at the push of a button in the lid you can control precisely the amount of water that you boil each time' between one to eight cups of water each time. Boiling too much water each time you make a cup of tea of coffee is one of the biggest cause of wasted energy in the home and it is well acknowledged that boiling just enough water for your needs can make a significant home energy saving, and if your electricity comes from a coal or gas fired power station, that adds up to a lot of CO2 saved during one year.

But don't just take our word on how much energy the eco kettle will save; The Market Transformation Programme (MTP), that supports the development and implementation of UK Government policy on sustainable products, show in their report on the energy profile of kettles  that the eco kettle is really as good as it says it is!

The eco kettle is available online from several retailers including:
