Saving energy with
the hob
Use pots and pans with thick, even bases. Uneven
bases increase energy consumption.
The diameter of pot and pan bases should be the
same size as the hotplate. In particular, small
saucepans on the hotplate cause energy losses.
Please remember: Cookware manufacturers often
provide the diameter of the saucepan. This is usually
bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.
Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger,
less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
Always place suitable lids on saucepans. When
cooking without a lid, four times the energy is
required.
Cook with only a little water. This will save energy.
Vitamins and minerals in vegetables are preserved.
Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.
Use the residual heat. For longer cooking times, you
can switch the hotplate off 5 to 10 minutes before the
end of the cooking time.
