Businesses can improve productivity as well as the bottom line by taking advantage of energy efficiency in office buildings as well as through production processes.

Taking Actions to Become Efficient

Industry surveys indicate that, mainly through procedural and behavioral changes, the average plant can reduce its energy consumption by 10 to 20 percent. Many companies are joining in to do their part in becoming energy efficient.

At the Alliance, we provide numerous forums for the business community to showcase the work it is doing to be energy efficient. Representatives from the business community share their firsthand experiences with implementing energy efficiency throughout their business practices at the Alliance's many speaking engagements, including our annual Great Energy Efficiency Day; Evening with the Stars of Energy Efficiency Awards Dinner; and international energy efficiency conference, EE Global.

Energy Conservation vs. Energy Efficiency: What's the Difference?

Energy Efficiency means building smarter homes
May 4, 2004

Energy efficiency is a far cry from the energy conservation images and practices of old - of doing with less or doing without, of being uncomfortable or less comfortable.

The OPEC oil embargo and related energy shortages and gas lines in the 1970s…

The President of the United States sitting in a cardigan asking all Americans to turn down their thermostats and industries to run factories at partial capacity…being somewhat less comfortable…

Sacrificing…

These are such graphic images of energy and national security in the American consciousness that they often are the first thoughts that come to mind when the words "energy conservation" are heard.
