Eco Appz, a new Irish start-up company based in County Kildare, has just released a basic version of its app Eco Bulbz. The app allows a quick calculation be carried out on a quantity of bulbs of the same wattage to see how much would be saved when normal incandescent bulbs are replaced by energy saving bulbs.
For a limited time the app can be downloaded free at the iTunes Store. The app works on the iPhone, iPod Touch and the iPad.
“We have designed the app to be easy to operate and by seeing how much money can be saved is more value than knowing how much energy can be saved,” explains Niamh of Eco Appz. “It’s a user friendly app with the ability to change the amount charged by the utility company for power and the option to change the currency.”
