The effort will help train apprentice, pre-apprentice and journey worker glaziers in energy-efficient building envelope technologies, the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority said.

New research from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) finds that Texas households that swap out inefficient electric resistance heaters for heat pumps would save an average of more than $300 in utility bills annually. Switching the quarter of Texas houses and apartments that rely on electric resistance heating to heat pumps would reduce peak winter electricity demand by an amount equivalent to the output of 40 new gas-fired power plants. The report calls for Texas policymakers, regulators, and utilities to encourage heat pump adoption at the time existing central air conditioners need to be replaced.

A global survey commissioned by ABB reveals that 91% of businesses prioritize energy efficiency in choosing electric motors, with 94% already investing or planning investments in sustainability. The findings highlight the critical role of energy-efficient solutions in reducing costs, meeting sustainability goals, and promoting long-term growth, supported by innovative technologies like ABB's IE6 SynRM motors.

In a crucial step towards securing a sustainable and energy-efficient future for the African continent, the African Union (AU) launched the African Energy Efficiency Programme and the African Energy Efficiency Alliance at COP 29 in Baku, Azerbaijan. The high-level meeting, organised by the African Energy Commission (AFREC) of the African Union at the Africa Pavilion, underscored the role of energy efficiency in closing the energy access gap and driving the transformation of Africa's energy systems.

In an era where energy concerns dominate global discourse, the necessity for efficient and sustainable energy solutions has never been more urgent. Countries worldwide are grappling with how to balance economic growth with environmental preservation. Japan certainly has crafted an exemplary model of energy efficiency even with the daunting challenge of limited natural resources. Explore Japan’s core strategies for success and examine how to adapt these principles globally. These strategies offer valuable lessons for creating sustainable, energy-efficient communities in diverse contexts.

Engineers at Vodafone are working with AMD to design mobile base stations capable of supporting AI workloads in addition to traditional network operations while using less power.

Governor Kathy Hochul announced New York is the first state to offer retail rebates for low-and moderate-income residents to purchase energy-efficient appliances.

The atoms of amorphous solids like glass have no ordered structure; they arrange themselves randomly, like scattered grains of sand on a beach. Normally, making materials amorphous—a process known as amorphization—requires considerable amounts of energy.

Rice University researchers have made a groundbreaking advance with their electrochemical reactor, poised to significantly reduce energy consumption in direct air capture—the critical process of extracting carbon dioxide from our atmosphere.

ABB has opened a new €20 million injection molding manufacturing site at Evergem, near Ghent in Belgium, to meet the growing demand for safe, smart and sustainable electrification solutions in Europe.

The city state is looking at greener energy sources and wants to make every aspect of data center energy consumption, from cooling to coding, more efficient.

The Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) market is experiencing significant changes driven by the need for energy efficiency across multiple industries.

The food processing industry is one of the most energy-intensive sectors, consuming vast amounts of electricity and fuel to transform raw ingredients into the products we consume daily. This high energy usage not only contributes to significant operational costs but also results in substantial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Implementing energy-efficient practices is crucial for reducing both costs and environmental impact. This article explores various strategies to enhance energy efficiency in food processing, ultimately leading to a more sustainable and profitable industry.

Energy costs are a hot topic for fish processing plants, who can potentially spend a lot of electricity to maintain optimal climates at all times. Below, we explain how Dantherm’s ECOline solution is significantly reducing the energy demands of climate control in this industry.

The use of energy-efficient components in the design of automation systems does much more than save energy and support corporate sustainability goals.

Canada's buildings sector is the third-largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions across the country. We must increase the scale and pace of retrofitting buildings across the country to make them more energy-efficient, increasing savings and reducing emissions.

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory invented a new way to control how electricity moves in and out of a special material used in microelectronics. This technique is called “redox gating.”

A groundbreaking development in massless energy storage has been achieved by a research group at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. Their innovative structural battery has the potential to reduce the weight of laptops by half, make mobile phones as thin as credit cards, and boost the driving range of electric cars by up to 70% on a single charge.

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.

This technology is expected to pave the way for more efficient and optimized IoT environments.
