When you waste electrical energy you are running up your costs while getting no benefit. Also the local power plant has to work harder so it uses more fuel and produces more CO2 than necessary.
Not many people realise that the fuel used and CO2 created in a power plant each hour is closely linked to the amount of energy consumers take. When you switch something off, the power plant can relax a little and it then uses a slightly lower fuel flow.

What devices are based on the magnetic effect of current?
All electrical devices.
What effect does the waste energy from a transformer have on the air around the?
Waste energy is converted to heat.
How are geothermal and wind power similar?
They both convert kinetic energy to electrical energy.
When a lamp is turned on electrical energy changes into what form of energy?
The older generation of bulb(one in witch heating metal coil was used) convert electrical energy into both heat and light energy and consume more energy as some energy is lost as a heat energy. The newer generation of electrical bulb (C.F.L.) convert almost all electrical energy into light energy and consume much less electrical energy.
Does geothermal energy generate waste?
Geothermal energy does produce waste, 122kg of C02 per megawatt-hour.
What devices can convert energy into electrical energy?
generator
What devices convert electrical energy to thermal energy?
Toasters, electric heaters, and hair dryers are just a few devices that convert electrical energy to thermal energy.
What are the devices that convert electrical energy into magnetic energy?
Electromagnets.
What devices converts electrical energy to mechanical energy?
The electric motor
Where does solar satellites and devices get electrical energy from?
The Sun
Is there any equipment to convert electronic to electrical energy?
There is no such thing as "electronic energy". Electronic devices use normal electrical energy.
