Taking place from June 1 to August 31, 2023, the meaningful contest received 523 entries from readers from all over the country. The authors are also diverse in age, with the youngest author being only 12 years old and the oldest author being 86 years old. The entries have contributed to spreading awareness of saving electricity among individuals and businesses, suggesting many practical solutions to save electricity, creating a positive impact on electricity usage habits as well as awareness of saving energy and protecting the environment sustainably.
