Energy Efficiency

1 Energy production and consumption represent the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions globally. In order to mitigate the impact of climate change in the energy sector, it is necessary to introduce measures that aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Emission cuts in the energy sector can be achieved through a variety of measures. These can be generally divided into three different policy areas: promotion of energy derived from low-carbon energy sources, increase of energy efficiency that leads to reduction of energy consumption, and promoting...
