Geocache Description:


DEUTSCH:
Ein kleiner Mystery der zum Energiesparen anregen möchte.
In Südtirol gibt es ca. 200.000 Haushalte. Wenn wir annehmen, daß durchschnittlich pro Haushalt drei Stunden am Tag drei 100 Watt Glühbirnen brennen und wir diese mit Sparlampen mit gleicher Leuchtleistung zu 20 Watt ersetzen und eine kWh 0,18 Euro kostet. Wieviele Euro würden dann die 200.000 Südtiroler Haushalte in einem Jahr an Stromkosten einsparen ?

ITALIANO:
Un piccolo mystery per animare al risparmio energetico.
In Alto Adige sono presenti ca. 200.000 nuclei familiari. Supponiamo che in media in ognuno dei nuclei familiari vengano accese tre lampadine da 100 Watt per tre ore al giorno e queste vengano sostituite con delle lampadine a risparmio energetico con la stessa luminosita` ma con un consumo di 20 Watt e che il costo per kWh ammonta ad 0,18 Euro. In questo caso quanto risparmierebbero in Euro i 200.000 nuclei familiari in un anno per il consumo di energia elettrica ?

ENGLISH:
A small mystery to animate power saving.
In South Tyrol there are about 200,000 households. If we assume that on average there burn three 100 watt bulbs per household for three hours a day, and we replace them with 20 watts energy saving light bulbs with equivalent light output and that the electricity costs are 0.18 Euro a kWh. How many Euro in electricity costs would then the 200,000 households in South Tyrol save in a year ?
