Representatives from Dominion Energy South Carolina, Berkeley Electric Cooperative and Santee Cooper are providing their customers ways to save on their energy bills as October is Energy Awareness Month.

The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of Korea has fully launched an energy efficiency rating system for electric vehicles, categorizing 278 models into five levels.

The city state is looking at greener energy sources and wants to make every aspect of data center energy consumption, from cooling to coding, more efficient.

The paper industry has become a part of the modern economies as it supplies everything from office supplies to packaging materials. And also, this industry is one of the most energy-consuming industries globally.

Saving energy directly increases profitability. However, it is sometimes overlooked in cost control. By benchmarking yourself, you can find your energy saving potential, which could add up to 30% of your total energy consumption in the plastics industry. A more detailed view at the machine-level of energy use could unlock a whole array of benefits.

The Vietnamese government’s new decree, announced at the end of October, encourages the development of self-consumption rooftop solar power systems. However, many investors feel that the regulatory details are unclear, making the application process much more difficult.

Solar energy is one of the most essential parts to achieve energy efficiency in Australia. It has proven to be a winning combination for people living in Australia because it has many advantages. Getting solar panels has become easier, cheaper, and more flexible recently. Many new solar systems work well for different types of homes and energy needs.

Energy conservation has become a trending topic all around the world, and Singapore’s industrial sector cannot stay away from this so easily as this nation puts so much weight on sustainability. What has Singapore done to conserve energy? From using less carbon-intensive fuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to switching to natural gas to generate electricity, their commitment is quite impressive! However, there are many other initiatives they can easily implement technologically if they want to make it a smart manufacturing grid. What is the energy strategy of Singapore?

In the plastics industry, the dual goals of economic efficiency and energy conservation are critical for achieving a sustainable and cost-effective future. As the demand for streamlined and environmentally friendly production increases, plastics manufacturers are challenged to innovate while maintaining responsible production practices.

Report concludes using reverse-cycle air conditioning instead of gas ducted heating could save households between $999 to $2,215 a year.

The built environment consists of buildings and infrastructure that touch all aspects of human life—from our houses and apartments to the commercial and industrial spaces where we work, shop, and socialize. This ecosystem accounts for around 26% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Countries across Sub-Saharan Africa are grappling with the challenges of expanding energy access while addressing climate change. As efforts accelerate to expand access to electricity to more people in the region, adopting energy efficiency measures upfront would help avoid locking-in inefficient energy consumption.

Energy demand – how much energy we use – is a surprisingly under-explored area in the drive to cut carbon emissions and fight the climate crisis. But for energy users who take action in this area, there is “extraordinary potential,” the World Economic Forum says.

The textile and garment industry uses a massive amount of energy in the production and manufacturing processes. And, due to geopolitical events, such as COVID-19 or the Russian-Ukraine war, energy costs have been rising which has also had a big impact on manufacturing companies , including the garment sector. Combined with the global increased pressure to adopt sustainable practices, garment manufacturers are prompted to seek innovative ways to reduce their energy consumption and enhance efficiency.

The Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) market is experiencing significant changes driven by the need for energy efficiency across multiple industries.

Energy and gas costs continue to rise, leaving businesses like food and beverage manufacturers feeling financially strained. The good news is that manufacturing businesses can significantly reduce their energy bills by becoming more energy efficient.

Schools, pools, and hospitals will be supported to make energy efficient upgrades, and businesses with high energy use will receive funding to help cut bills and emissions.

Australian Energy Ministers will decide whether to implement proposed Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for lighting, including light emitting diodes (LEDs).

Homes that meet recommended air tightness levels have lower energy bills and healthier indoor air quality, with the study also identifying the factors – and rooms – that caused leakages in most new homes.
