Energy efficiency
Energy efficiency refers to the ability to use energy more efficiently and productively, reducing waste and improving performance. In essence, energy efficiency is about getting more (lighting, heating, electricity production) for less cost (fuel, electricity). This can be achieved through the choice of more efficient technologies, the improvement of building and machine design, less waste and losses, and the change of consumption habits. Energy efficiency is important for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, saving money, and improving energy security.
