Heh.. but it's the kind of question that should be answered before going ahead with something like that.

Kind of like in Ontario during the fuel shortages when they asked everyone to turn off their lights to save energy, and it ended up using more fuel because big buildings turned off their lights (powered by hydro), meaning the buildings required more fuel heating to compensate for the lost heat from the lighting.
