If you want to save a little extra money and energy, you may want to consider installing a "kill" switch" if you are remodeling or rebuilding. In a Networx article by Carl Seville he suggests the kill switch, "which is a regular switch that controls a set of receptacles that you plug in all the things that you can turn off".
Seville, who works with electricians in Atlanta, also shares several other tips such as using occupancy sensors which "turn on lights when someone enters a room, turning them off automatically a pre-set amount of time after they exit".
