Energy efficiency is reducing the amount of energy required to provide products and services, such as doing the same or more with less energy. It can be achieved through improving efficiency of appliances, lighting, equipment, and buildings, as well as changing energy usage behaviors. Implementing energy efficiency measures can save businesses and individuals significant amounts on their energy bills, typically 10-70% savings, while also reducing environmental impacts and reliance on energy imports. Common high impact energy efficiency opportunities include installing efficient lighting and appliances, improving insulation, utilizing passive solar design principles, and raising awareness to change energy usage habits.

This document discusses various topics related to energy conservation. It begins by defining energy conservation as decreasing the quantity of energy used through efficient energy use or reduced consumption. Individuals and organizations want to conserve energy to reduce costs and promote economic security.
It then discusses the necessity of energy conservation due to factors like increased energy costs, the impact of energy costs on product costs, available efficient technology options, reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, and overall environmental benefits.
The document also covers energy conservation efforts and policies in India, including the Energy Conservation Act of 2001, targets for capacity creation through efficiency, identified conservation potential, and the role of the Bureau of Energy Efficiency. Specific sectors like buildings, industries, and domestic use are examined

It summarizes tips like eliminating phantom energy loads from electronics, saving water, landscaping for shade and wind protection, purchasing Energy Star appliances, replacing lighting with LED bulbs, programming thermostats, maintaining HVAC systems, insulating attics, sealing air leaks, and replacing old windows. The document is from a local sustainable organization aimed at inspiring sustainable practices in the community.
This document provides an overview of conducting an energy audit of a household. It discusses:
1. Preparing for the audit by collecting old electricity bills and appliance power ratings.
2. Conducting the audit by making a list of appliances with their usage times and calculating the daily electricity consumption of each.
3. Calculating the household's total daily and monthly electricity usage, and the carbon dioxide emissions based on the electricity consumption and country's CO2 emission intensity.
4. Recommendations for improving energy efficiency in the household through actions like using energy efficient appliances and switching off devices when not in use.
Two areas where carbon emissions can be immediately reduced are lighting and water delivery systems. Upgrading to LED lighting can reduce energy usage from lighting by 20% and allow facilities to close coal power plants. Installing turbines in water delivery systems can generate electricity from water flow and pressure, offsetting the large energy usage from pumping and treating water. Several case studies show upgrades to LED lighting and installing turbines in water systems achieved large reductions in energy usage and carbon emissions along with payback periods of 1-2 years.

Proper installation, maintenance, and calibration of new LED lighting is important for maximizing energy savings and bulb lifespan.
Liander, a grid operator in the Netherlands, conducted a pilot program using smart plugs to measure and reduce energy usage in their offices and households. The smart plugs measured energy usage of connected appliances and allowed for remote switching. In offices, the plugs were installed on computers, monitors, copiers, and lighting. This led to an average 13% energy savings, with potential for more if computers were switched off after hours. In households, consumers saved 3.5% on average but savings varied depending on engagement. The pilot provided insights on improving user interfaces and engagement to achieve greater energy reductions.
This document discusses energy efficiency in industry. It notes that energy efficiency means using energy in the most cost effective way to minimize waste and reduce primary energy consumption. Some key benefits of energy efficiency for industries include lower costs, increased competitiveness, and a reduced environmental impact. However, there are also barriers to implementing energy efficiency such as a lack of awareness, perceived risks, and an absence of technologies. The document explores various approaches to improving energy efficiency, including passive measures like efficient lighting and active measures like automation and regulation. It also discusses concepts like energy benchmarking, energy service companies (ESCOs), and the synergies between energy efficiency and renewable energy.
