It includes a helpful weekly bar chart broken out by day of the week. Energy usage by day is expressed as kilowatt-hours (kWh), which is a unit of measurement that equals the amount of energy used by a 1,000-watt appliance for one hour. The higher the number, the more energy consumed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-733818\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/alexa-energy-dashboard-on-mobile.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Alexa Energy Dashboard on mobile.\" width=\"650\" height=\"450\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Energy usage can also be viewed across different device types.<\/p>\n<p>Additional sliders allow you to view energy usage by kWh or by time powered on, which can be viewed using weekly or monthly charts. A separate section provides helpful insights and recommendations based on real-time behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the Alexa Energy Dashboard can suggest turning off your lights at a specific time. These suggestions tie back to Alexa Routines, which can be configured in less than 30 seconds. This is an excellent option for users living in large homes who need extra help powering off 10-plus devices.<\/p>\n<p>Alexa\u2019s Energy Dashboard also considers your existing location. If the Alexa app senses that you\u2019re away from home, a device can automatically be turned off.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Low_Power_Mode_Brought_to_You_by_Alexa\"><\/span>Low Power Mode, Brought to You by Alexa<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Following Alexa\u2019s Energy Dashboard, the wall-powered Echo and Fire TVs have seen new energy savings features with a Low Power Mode, along with free over-the-air updates to bring Low Power Mode to pre-released products. When devices aren\u2019t in an active state, Low Power Mode automatically configures devices to use less power.<\/p>\n<p>Other advances made by Amazon to consume less energy include building speakers out of recycled products, such as recycled fabric, die-cash aluminum, and plastic. Trade-in and recycling options for select Alexa-compatible devices are also available.
