In Western countries , electricity , gas , and water are not luxuries but necessities .Companies now realize that consumers want products that will not work effectively , but also save money . For most North American households , lighting accounts for 10 percent to 15 percent of the electricity bill . However , this amount can be reduced by replacing an ordinary 100-watt light bulb with an energy-saving bulb .These bulbs use a quarter of the electricity of standard bulbs and last eight times longer .
