By increasing the temperature from 22 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius, households can lower their carbon emissions by 30 per cent. Every increase of 1 degree Celsius reduces carbon emissions by 10 per cent and electricity costs even further.
Can “22” replace "22 degrees Celsius?
Thanks.

The original is fine, but a little wordy.
“By increasing the temperature from 22 to 25 degrees Celsius, households can lower their carbon emissions by 30 per cent. “
This is ok, but you’re giving the reader a number, “22”, but not immediately telling them what it is. I would go with:
By increasing the temperature from 22 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees, households can lower their carbon emissions by 30 per cent.
It’s a case of redundancy to avoid which, as you say, two words may be avoided without interfering with the meaning.
So, I would prefer the one @Arinker has suggested: By increasing the temperature from 22 to 25 degrees Celsius , households can lower their carbon emissions by 30 per cent.
