4. The major drains are rather insensitive to manual efficienies

Like refrigerators, air conditioners and other appliances.

When you wash and dry, don't do small loads. Save it up.

Check with your utility for rebates, etc. for upgrading to more energy efficient ones and see if anticipated savings make it cost effective.

Are solar panels in the cards for you given climate, location, regulations, etc. Does the utility have a cogeneration arrangement ?
