The new Fuel Poverty Strategy states that future governments will now be required by law to tackle fuel poverty by making the coldest homes in England more energy efficient.

Researchers at The University of British Columbia (UBC) have helped engineer a new pulp screening technology that is up to 50 percent more energy efficient and is saving Canada’s pulp and paper industry approximately $20 million a year.

The best heaters on the market use a combination of convection and radiant heat. These space heaters are referred to as panel heaters. They blend approximately 80% of the convection technology with 20% of radiant. They are highly energy efficient and warm larger spaces quickly and quietly.

A national programme for doctors to prescribe energy efficient measures for fuel poor patients suffering from diseases as a result of cold homes has been unveiled.

These savings would also ensure carbon emission (CO2) reductions of 8.7-17.6 million tonnes a year, according the study, ‘Research to Assess the Barriers and Drivers to Energy Efficiency in Small and Medium Sized Enterprises’.

The key to reducing to the ongoing cost of operating a warehouse or industrial shed is to ensure that the building is in good working condition and has been fitted with the latest energy efficient products.

LEDs use a semiconductor as its light source and are currently one of the most efficient lighting systems.

The building of the future could feature windows capable of changing the amount of light they let through at the push of a button and facades that can alter their color based on the amount of sunlight at any given time

EU-funded researchers have developed an online software platform to help household appliance designers make their products more energy efficient.

Two groups of builders want to claim title of "greenest" home in the Yukon. A Whitehorse man whose hobby is building homes is aiming to build the most energy efficient house in the Yukon.

This winter the city of Washington is looking into two energy efficiency projects that could have big savings. The first project involves a program sponsored by Ameren Missouri.

A combination of highly efficient LEDs and a digital control system from Open Technology has achieved 85% energy savings on lighting.

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

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.

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.

John Colucci, vice president of sales and marketing at Westchester Modular Homes, says the up-charge is minimal. He claims that a modular home may cost 3 to 5 percent more for a house that is 50 to 60 percent more efficient than the typical home.

Rıza Köroğlu, director of Istanbul-based Total Energy Efficiency, told the Anadolu Agency (AA) that if Turkey reached the level of Germany - the world's leading energy efficient nation - the country could save $39 billion (TL 87.15 billion) on its $65 billion annual energy spend.

The UK’s Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) has seen savings of more than £2 million so far by investing in energy efficient lighting.

Nearly eight in 10 renters say landlords should not be allowed to let out properties that have very poor levels of energy efficiency as a majority of them find it hard to heat their homes properly.

The Ministry of Construction said five localities including Hanoi, Hai Phong, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and Can Tho would pilot using energy efficient and energy-saving construction materials in construction works.
