Energy Efficiency Solutions



Energy efficiency means using less energy by using a better technology to generate the power for the city. By reducing energy we can save energy and reduce the global worming. The solution to make new building more energy efficient is designing building with a high quality of standards. By developing lighting, heating, cooling, and other operations the energy of existing buildings will be reduced. Another solution to get energy and save money is replacing the traditional lights with a light emitting diode (LED) bulbs. Also the government can support the energy efficiency project by using the money from the raising cost on consumer energy bills. Other solution we can produce both electricity and steam by using combined heat and power systems.

I'm glad you mention combined heat & power. I'm associated with Recycled Energy Development (recycled-energy.com), a company that does exactly that -- converting excess heat into electricity and steam. U.S. government estimates suggest such technologies could provide 40% of our electricity, slashing greenhouse gases by 20% while cutting energy costs. The only problem is that regulations now reward inefficiency.
