More than 23,000 energy efficiency measures have been installed in rural homes in the UK in the last six months. That’s an almost 3000% increase between April and September this year, according to new statistics from DECC.

Cục Năng lượng và Biến đổi khí hậu (DECC), Anh vừa cho biết hơn 23 ngàn biện pháp sử dụng năng lượng hiệu quả đã được áp dụng tại các gia đình ở vùng nông thôn của Anh trong vòng 6 tháng qua, tương đương với mức tăng trưởng 3.000 %.

Pursuing energy efficient ways will help reduce electricity consumption and save as much as Rs 50,000 crore, according to Power Minister Piyush Goyal.

Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School kicked off its SEED program with a powerful all-school presentation by Alliance for Climate Education. The ACE Assembly was a natural lead-in for recruiting students to the SEED program, which promotes greenhouse-gas-reducing efficiency upgrades in their community.

South Africa has a goal of having 18 gigawatts of renewable energy by 2030, so projects like this are definitely steps in the right direction. If there's one thing that South Africa has lots of, it's sunlight! 45% of the total project value was spent on "local content" to help increase the positive economic impact on the area.

Lithium ion batteries power everything these days from smartphones to electric cars. They’ve been a great advance in portable power storage. On the downside, their spread also makes a big contribution to electronic waste dumps often found in developing countries.

Nhiều người trong số chúng ta tưởng rằng mình đang sử dụng năng lượng đúng cách, nhưng thực ra không phải như vậy. Bộ Năng lượng và Biến đổi Khí Hậu (DECC), Anh vừa tiết lộ một số sự thật về bốn ngộ nhận mà chúng ta hoàn toàn sai về tiết kiệm năng lượng.

A new experimental “smart town” based especially around the technologies of solar energy and battery storage is being developed in Japan by Panasonic Corporation (along with other public and private partners), based on recent reports.

The new displays ditch the electrodes, simultaneously making the screen thinner and decreasing its energy requirements.

Solar energy in the United States is becoming a major part of the nation's power sector as installation costs decline, Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz said.

Building-integrated solar photovoltaic modules are fast catching up in the rapidly evolving construction business where emphasis on energy efficiency and self-reliance are becoming increasingly popular.

Scientists estimate that 20 percent of all the world’s energy is spent on light, especially on illuminating towns and cities. Even in a technologically advanced country like Denmark, many of the street lamps are antiquated and energy inefficient.

The new “energy centre” a building that houses the heating and electricity equipment, will save the Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust around £10 million over the next 18 years.

Whether it was planting millions of trees, turning food waste into electricity or using smart grid technology to slash its energy use, British supermarket Sainsbury's has been slowly but surely beefing up its sustainability credentials.

Every shower, you’ll save enough electricity to power a 60-watt light bulb for eight hours, or a 20-watt LED for 24 hours. Every year, you’ll save the amount of water it takes to wash more than 70 loads of laundry.

More than 14 energy conservation and 40 industrial promotion centers have been established in the whole country in order to promote saving and using energy efficiently by direct consulting for business. However, until now, half of them have only played propagandizing roles.

The intelligent streetlight system, designed by Dutch Delft University of Technology, using motion sensing technology that automatically dims streetlights to 20% power when no pedestrians or vehicles are in the vicinity—and the idea is ready to go commercial.

The Victorian Labor Party has sought to underline its renewable energy credentials by vowing to help the town of Newstead, near Bendigo, to become 100 per cent renewable energy by 2017, and become the state’s first “solar town”.

With the number of Internet connected devices rapidly increasing, researchers from Melbourne are starting a new research program to reduce energy consumption of such devices.

It converts about 200,000 litres of feedstock and 1,200 tonnes of residues per day. The power generation unit produces enough electricity to supply about 8% of the factory’s total power requirement, which, in turn, saves about £100,000 every year.
