Energy efficiency is the use of less energy to perform the same task or produce
the same result.
•
Energy efficiency is defined as the use of energy in an optimum manner to
achieve the same service that could have been achieved using a common less
efficient manner.
•
Energy efficiency is the practice of reducing the energy requirements while
achieving the required energy output.
•
Energy-efficient homes and buildings use less energy to heat, cool and run
appliances and electronics and energy-efficient manufacturing facilities use
less energy to produce goods.
•
Energy efficiency is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to combat
climate change, reduce energy costs for consumers.
•
Energy efficiency is also a vital component in achieving net-zero emissions of
carbon dioxide through decarbonization.
•
Efficient use of energy can be understood in terms of using energy in such a
way as to obtain the maximum benefit.
