Energy efficient appliances
Energy efficient appliances are very important to reduce the energy usage of a home. Induction cooktops and stoves are the best option. 90% of the electric energy heats the cooking vessel whereas natural gas 60% and electric 45% of the cooking heat is lost to heating your stovetop or the kitchen air, making gas cooking efficiency low as 40% efficient and electric as around 55% efficient. A refrigerator is one of the few systems/appliances which is working consistently every day and can be one of the most energy intensive appliances in a kitchen. Consider Energy Star rated appliances and WiFi enabled or "Smart" appliances which can alert you to irregularities like leaving the fridge door open or water leaks.
