The ongoing war in Ukraine has underscored the EU’s vulnerability to external energy supplies. Europe’s reliance on imported fossil fuels is a liability, not only environmentally but also geopolitically. Prioritising energy efficiency alongside renewable energy and electrification is essential to reducing this dependence. The Energy Efficiency First (EE1st) principle holds the potential to strengthen security and resilience aiming at prioritising energy efficiency wherever it is the most cost-effective solution, ensuring that energy needs are met sustainably and economically.

When building homes that are truly energy efficient, the conversation often gravitates towards insulation. However, there is another critical factor that can yield equally impactful—if not greater—results: airtightness.

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.

Researchers have found a more sustainable way to produce energy using plants that can survive in dry conditions such as deserts.

The coating, which is applied to HVAC condenser coils, could save these data centers an additional $16 million over the next decade, Ener.co says.

As 2024 draws to a close, Europe’s energy winter preparedness is a priority. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the EU and its member countries have taken many bold measures to decrease reliance on fossil fuels, accelerate the shift to clean energy and build a more resilient and diversified energy system, with a view to strengthening energy independence and ensuring stable, affordable energy supplies for citizens and businesses.

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.
