They are aimed not only at improving energy efficiency but also at reducing pollution.

For example, improving energy efficiency and material use efficiency has been undertaken in many sectors under cleaner production and environmental management initiatives.

These projects are aimed not only at improving energy efficiency but also at reducing pollution, including the emission of greenhouse gases.

Energy conservation and efficiency

The world s dependence on Persian Gulf oil means that all countries have an interest in maintaining stability in that region, while improving energy efficiency and increasing the diversity of their overall energy supplies.

On some counts it is about greater competition improving efficiency.

(e) Improving the efficiency of the distribution of food aid.

(c) Improving management of energy resources

A big loser here is energy efficiency.

Programme Component C.2 Industrial Energy Efficiency

After energy efficiency , add , advanced fossil fuel technology .

Policies targeting energy efficiency and security largely lapsed.

Higher fuel use intensity implies lower energy efficiency

Research on mitigation included research on new energy sources and renewable energy, energy efficiency, and GHG abatement technologies.

Brazil s firms are far more efficient than America s subsidized industry, which puts more energy into getting subsidies out of Congress than in improving efficiency. Some studies suggest that it requires more energy to produce America s ethanol than is contained in it.

These efforts led to major improvements in energy efficiency.

Technological innovation and increased energy efficiency have considerable potential.

34 (XXI) Rationalization and increased efficiency of energy and the use of renewable sources of energy

Efficiency should be sought in energy production, distribution and utilization.

According to KWL, its actions were aimed at improving the efficiency of port operations.

For example, the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership, founded in the United Kingdom, has grown into a multi stakeholder body supporting renewables and efficiency in numerous countries.

But if China can improve its energy efficiency, it will save money and strengthen its energy security.

Dr. A. Yazdizadeh former head of Iran Energy Efficiency Organization and Ministry of Energy top researcher (2008) .

Awareness building in energy efficiency measures and the introduction of efficient industrial energy systems is, therefore, required.

UNIDO's energy efficiency programme addresses the fact that industry is one of the biggest users of energy.

The United Nations climate panel and the International Energy Agency both echo this sentiment, insisting that higher energy efficiency could reduce energy consumption by up to 30 making improved efficiency an effective remedy for climate change.

In the energy area particular attention is given to the priority services rural energy for productive use with emphasis on renewable energy and energy efficiency .

The project focuses on (a) improving energy efficiency through the replacement of outdated equipment and addressing leakage prevention and insulation needs in buildings and (b) extending gas supply to households with wood burning stoves.

Energy conversion efficiency (η) is the ratio between the useful output of an energy conversion machine and the input, in energy terms.

It also requires more energy efficiency, which means a reduction of waste in both energy production and consumption.

Energy efficiency is often called the low hanging fruit of emissions reduction.

Myth 3 If energy efficiency worked, everyone would have done it already.

Energy efficiency is, likewise, rarely addressed as a cross cutting, strategic issue.

They also promised to cooperate on development of renewable energy, improvement of energy efficiency, and denuclearization of North Korea.

Energy Star, a United States government program concerned with energy efficiency in consumer products, does not rate clothes dryers.

In particular, research and development funding for renewable energy sources, carbon management and energy efficiency needs to increase substantially.

In the industrial sector, three Parties proposed projects aimed at identifying energy conservation measures and actions (energy efficiency gains).

Therefore, industrial energy efficiency is very important to increase productivity and to optimize energy intensity of manufacturing and services.

Industry would benefit enormously if energy efficiency standards were demanding and continuously tightened.

We will need improved energy efficiency, through green buildings and more efficient appliances.

This promotes innovative thinking about alternative forms of energy and encourages increased efficiency.

The majority of project proposals in the industrial sector target energy efficiency gains, in particular the improved efficiency of industrial boilers and furnaces.

Given its heavy dependence on imported energy, Japan has aimed to diversify its sources and maintain high levels of energy efficiency.

The agenda to address climate change overlapped with the imperative for greater energy efficiency in the wake of high energy prices.

An energy plus house (also called Plus Energy House, Efficiency Plus House) produces more energy from renewable energy sources, over the course of a year, than it imports from external sources.
