Win an energy saving kettle Winter is on its way and, when the temperatures start to drop outside, all thoughts turn to keeping cosy and snuggling up indoors in the warm.

But although it's only natural that you'd want to turn on the heating at this time of year, it's still important to think about conserving energy.

According to E.ON, the company behind Powergen, there are lots of ways to make your home more energy efficient.

From turning down your thermostat to switching over to energy saving light bulbs and energy efficient appliances, there's plenty you can do.

And apart from being able to relax in the knowledge that your carbon footprint is being reduced, your bank account will also see the benefits.

You could win an enery saving kettle - the Eco Kettle.

The Eco Kettle is different: its internal reservoir holds a full capacity of water ready for use, while the measuring button allows any quantity - from a single cupful to full capacity - to be released into the separate chamber for boiling.

The result? Exactly the right amount of water every time you boil - and no more waste.

The Eco Kettle was approved by the Good Housekeeping Institute in 2005 and is recommended by Powergen as a pioneering product in the battle to save energy in the nation's homes.

The Eco Kettle has been awarded the prestigious 'Recommended' mark by the Energy Saving Trust.

This is the first award to be given in the Energy Saving Trust's newly established kettle category, and endorses the massive 31% average energy savings achieved by the ECO Kettle in independent trials.

Based upon average usage figures, it is estimated that ECO Kettles sold over the past 2 years have already reduced CO2 emissions in the UK by a staggering 500 tonnes!
