Broadly speaking, this means carbon footprint reporting and building energy efficiency and monitoring, analyzing, reporting and reducing energy consumption.
And we will modernize our electric grid, allowing us to better integrate renewable energy, increase efficiency and reliability, and empower families to make informed decisions about their energy consumption.
Low household energy costs dampen demand for energy efficiency and most home-appliance manufacturers have hugely reduced their energy consumption in other ways.
The Executive Order commits Federal agencies to lead by example toward a clean energy economy, and sets targets to reduce greenhouse gas pollution, increase energy efficiency, reduce fleet petroleum consumption, conserve water, reduce waste, support sustainable communities, and leverage Federal purchasing power to promote environmentally-responsible products and technologies.
Working through grantees, it has had significant impact on promoting adoption of state and federal vehicle efficiency standards, more stringent residential and commercial building codes to reduce energy consumption, and development of renewable energy technology.
How do you align molecular biology and algorithmic algebra with a career in energy efficiency, retrofitting, solar power, power consumption, and further, corporate reputation, building trust and promoting ethical business?
By doubling the number of StemCell Media processors compared to the previous ZMS-20, the ZMS-40 delivers twice the peak media performance, while running the larger array at lower clock speeds to achieve the same performance leads to greater energy efficiency and a reduction in power consumption of up to 50 percent.
This would raise revenue, penalise consumption and encourage energy efficiency.
Study after study has pegged energy efficiency as the lowest-cost way to curb fossil-fuel consumption and the resulting greenhouse-gas emissions.
WSJ: The Experts: What Will Be the Next Technological Breakthrough in Energy?
Distributed energy aims to decouple profits and consumption so that power companies have a greater incentive to invest in energy-efficiency technologies that drive distributed-energy networks.
Clean renewables can meet at least 99% of our energy needs (especially when combined with conservation and efficiency measures to bring wasteful U.S. consumption down to levels of other first-world countries that use half as much energy per capita).
Although the country continues to grapple with rising oil prices and experiments with expensive ways to clean up coal, energy consumption can be significantly reduced through energy efficiency.
And it's estimated that we could probably lop off 30 percent of our energy consumption just on efficiency without changing our lifestyles significantly.
