An optimized model could further reduce the energy needed, decrease pain and tissue damage.

A new analysis from CDP has revealed that almost half of companies globally use no renewable electricity, while more than nine in ten have no energy efficiency targets, thus missing opportunities for cost savings and enhanced resilience.

Global energy consumption continues to rise, driven by factors such as population growth, urbanisation, industrialisation, and economic development. Efforts to improve energy efficiency are critical for managing global energy consumption and addressing sustainability challenges. By reducing the amount of energy needed to provide goods and services, energy efficiency measures can help decouple economic growth from energy consumption, enabling societies to achieve their development goals while minimising environmental impacts.

The fund, which is Africa’s first structured debt vehicle focused on energy efficiency solutions, invests into early-stage businesses that are working on boosting climate resilience on the continent.

Under pressure from customers and investors, many U.S. companies have pledged to voluntarily reduce their impact on the climate. But that doesn't always mean they're cutting their own greenhouse gas emissions.

Industrial players currently face a double challenge: how can they battle increasing costs for energy and reduce emissions at the same time. This double challenge has also been the main topic of the Business Breakfast organised by Bilfinger, one of the leading international providers of industrial services in Eastern Europe, in Bucharest this May. Bilfinger experts discussed with representatives of major industrial investors what the challenges are and how to ensure that their operations are energy efficient or even self-sufficient.

ASEAN’s thriving industry sector faces a dual challenge of rapid growth and environmental responsibility. Learn how the synergy of energy efficiency and renewable energy can lead to sustainable industrial practices and a greener future for the region.

A new report by Apparel Impact Institute and Development Finance International Inc. says India needs $6.5 billion in financing to reduce its textile and apparel industry’s emissions by 45% by 2030 through renewable energy and energy efficiency interventions. While around $2.5 billion is available, there is still a $4 billion financing gap in India.
