The Time for Efficiency is Now
Abstract
Every day we waste an enormous amount of energy. It is the result of more than a century of economic development based on low cost fossil fuels, with no attention at all for saving energy. For these reasons saving energy is not so hard, and as opposed to what happens with renewables, today energy efficiency is already competitive with traditional energy sources. In other words NegaWatts are defi nitely less expensive than MegaWatts, as stated by the International Energy Agency. There are many solutions available in the field of industry, buildings and mobility, that can save both energy and money. The time for efficiency is now.
