With a series of synchronized solutions from management to technology, Stanley Vietnam has saved millions of kWh of electricity, reduced CO₂ emissions, and reaffirmed its green commitment.

Hoa Phat Group has generated 1.8 billion kWh of electricity, saving nearly 3,500 billion dong, contributing to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving production efficiency.

Waste heat recovery (WHR) power generation system helping Tan Thang Cement save 80 billion VND in electricity costs annually and contribute to environmental emission reduction.

Since July, the Council’s Home Energy Advice service has supported over 200 households at local events across the city. They have reduced energy bills and removed over 12 tonnes of CO2e emissions through free impartial advice, energy saving items, and access to funding.

To accelerate the transition to net-zero carbon emissions, the Malaysian government is set to implement the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act (EECA) next year, initially targeting buildings of large energy consumers in the manufacturing and commercial sectors.

The EBRD, in collaboration with the EU and Japan, is providing a €4 million loan to NLB Bank AD Skopje. The funds will support energy-efficiency upgrades for households, aiming to reduce CO2 emissions and improve quality of life.

SMRT Trains has introduced Green CBTC Next Gen technology, achieving an 8% energy savings in train operations as part of its plan to reach net zero emissions by 2050.

IEA defines energy intensity as the amount of primary energy used to produce a given amount of economic output. It is the key global indicator to track energy efficiency- which is technically the rate of change in primary energy intensity.

As climate change laws like Boston’s BERDO and New York City’s Local Law 97 reshape commercial real estate, landlords and tenants face new challenges. These regulations aim for net-zero emissions by 2050, impacting energy efficiency and emissions reduction in buildings. Lease negotiations must address costs, responsibilities, and compliance to avoid penalties and ensure sustainability.

Conversion to biogas could reduce emissions and save more than £400 million a year in fuel costs.

Shell Malaysia has unveiled a significant plan to accelerate its transition towards net-zero emissions by 2050, with a focus on installing solar panels across the rooftops of its more than 600 retail sites. The solar installation will have a total capacity of 20 MWp, with plans for all sites to switch to solar power by next year.

A new commentary, published by members of the Energy Demand Changes Induced by Technological and Social Innovations (EDITS) network, coordinated by IIASA, highlights that switching the focus from how energy is supplied to how energy is consumed can be a more effective approach to reducing carbon emissions with the added benefit of improving wellbeing for all.

Doubling global rate of improvement will require countries to accelerate policy implementation, which would improve energy security, reduce energy costs and lower emissions

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.

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.

Ahead of COP28, a new report gives industries a roadmap to save 11% of global emissions by 2030 while saving $437 billion along the way. The report, named “The Case for Industrial Energy Efficiency” published by the Energy Efficiency Movement (EEM), outlines ten key actions that does not require new technologies or policy decisions, but promise to save emissions.

Current energy consumption trends in commercial buildings highlight the urgent need for improved energy efficiency. Inefficient HVAC systems not only drive up operational costs but also contribute significantly to environmental degradation through higher CO2 emissions. Through developing a service and maintenance strategy, using digital insights to review the existing equipment and systems, giving a baseline on the energy consumption and what system improvements could be made, businesses and building owners can expect to see improvements in energy efficiency, enhance indoor air quality, and reduce both costs and carbon footprints.

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?

Making motors more efficient is a more immediate solution that reduces energy consumption and cuts costs at the same time. The IEA has said that energy efficiency would provide a third of all emissions reductions in their Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario.
