Dunno how it works in Europe but in US (I’m in Oregon) the state licenses “Home Energy Assessors” that can audit your homes energy usage. This means all appliances are checked, weather stripping, windows, doors etc. They can give you a big list of improvements you can make to slash your energy bill.

If renting an apartment you can at least look at your appliances etc.

Side note: I have near-boiling water on demand on tap and it uses very little energy. My model is about 8 years old now but there are newer ones that are even better: https://www.realhomes.com/buying-guides/the-best-boiling-water-taps
