  • Use induction cookers as they are more energy efficient than electric stoves. 
  • Choose energy efficient induction cookers or gas cookers. Induction cookers or gas cookers with "Grade 1" energy label are the most energy efficient. 
  • Using fan-forced electric ovens can save more energy than conventional electric ovens.
  • Use multi-jet cookers/ovens as their versatility can minimize energy wastage. 
  • Adjust the stove flame to fit the bottom of a cooking pan. Flame going up the sides of a pan wastes energy and will not increase the cooking efficiency. 
  • Using simmer burners to heat up food in casseroles or use slow-cook pots can save energy.
  • Use cooking appliances with higher energy efficiency like microwave ovens or toaster ovens for cooking and heating food in small quantities.
  • Choose energy efficient microwave ovens and electric rice cookers, such as those with an energy label.
  • Using electric pots for boiling water are more energy saving than stoves.
  • Boil water in volume to just meet the consumption needs. Store any surplus hot water into a thermal pot. Avoid using the keep-warm function of an electric pot.
  • Keep cooking burner clean to maintain optimum efficiency in fuel combustion.
