This was a good read, thanks for sharing.

I lived in the city most of my life. Though I never went off grid I did small things that made a huge impact on my electricity consumption. My electric bill was so low I’d often get free credits from the city for using less than the average resulting in a bill that was already paid.

For me it was:

• Low voltage laptop for my day job
• Only charge my devices at night (off peak, cheaper to charge)
• LED lamps that I only use at night

The only thing using electricity during the day was my fridge. This is easy to do if you work from home using only your computer and live alone, but if you have kids it’s probably a LOT harder to do.
