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.

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.

In a bid to achieve its net-zero target by 2050, Thailand's retail giant Central Group is intensifying its sustainability initiatives in Vietnam. This includes the expansion of rooftop solar installations and efforts to reduce energy consumption, aimed at mitigating the impact of Vietnam's unstable power supply.

According to the European Commission, buildings in the European Union are responsible for 40% of final energy consumption in the European Union and 36% of its energy-related greenhouse gas emissions, while 75% of the European Union’s buildings are still energy inefficient and 85-95% of the buildings that exist today will continue to exist in 2050.

Schneider Electric highlights the critical need for sustainable data center design to reduce carbon emissions and enhance resilience. Through advanced digital solutions, Schneider aims to optimize energy use and drive sustainability in the data center industry.

In March 2024, MEPs adopted plans, already agreed upon with Council, to help reduce energy consumption and greenhouse-gas emissions from the buildings sector.

No effect of LEED certification on average energy consumption in federal buildings.

The evaluation focuses on the achievements of the Rural Development Programme with regard to energy consumption efficiency and renewable energy production in the agriculture and food processing industry.

Industry is the second largest source of CO2 emissions, with heavy industries like chemicals, steel, and cement responsible for nearly 60% of energy consumption. Energy efficiency is crucial for meeting climate targets in the EU, but can it alone decarbonize these sectors? This paper examines the role of energy-efficient technologies and necessary policy recommendations.

Energy consumption will likely grow to meet supply if states don’t enact limits — and there are already precedents they can follow.

Camden council (UK) will be offering free support to nearly 125 local businesses for reducing energy consumption, cutting costs and lowering carbon emissions.

Cement production is one of the industries with high energy consumption, and cement enterprises prioritize finding effective energy-saving solutions to reduce costs and increase profits.

Integrating artificial intelligence into today's environmental control systems could reduce energy consumption for indoor agriculture by 25% -- potentially helping to feed the world as its population rises, engineers have found.

The energy audit report conducted by Viet-Sing Steel in 2023 shows that the company's energy consumption is 0.4% lower than the energy consumption standard of the steel industry (as per Circular No. 20/2016/TT-BCT dated September 20, 2016, by the Ministry of Industry and Trade).

With the potential to save about 20% of energy consumption, textile enterprises increasingly focus on implementing energy-saving solutions.

There are numerous tips on home energy conservation, from small daily habits to big investments that help the environment and reduce your energy bills. So, what are some simple tips to reduce energy consumption at home? Let's explore the following tips.

Improving energy efficiency in commercial buildings has become an urgent issue in Vietnam with energy consumption demand rising rapidly. As energy costs account for a significant portion of operational expenses, implementing effective energy-saving solutions will bring considerable economic benefits. Let’s explore 7 ways to improve energy efficiency in commercial buildings in Vietnam in the article below!

Energy consumption from artificial intelligence could be reduced by a factor of at least 1,000 with this device.

According to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the industrial sector currently accounts for more than 50% of the total energy consumption nationwide. Surveys show that the potential for energy-saving in Vietnam's industry is estimated at around 20-30%.

For large industries such as paper, steel, and others with large energy consumption, effective energy management is extremely important. It is not only a key factor in reducing product costs, but also directly impacts the long-term survival and development of the business.
