The Benefits of Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is the cleanest energy resource. Unlike generated electricity, energy-efficient technologies (known as negawatts) emit no GHGs and don’t require mining or land use. Efficient appliances, homes, buildings, and transportation cut costs and emissions while promoting a sustainable future. ACEEE’s new report Recognizing the Value of Energy Efficiency’s Multiple Benefits describes gains beyond energy…
