Importance
of Energy Study
Our environment
and its limited natural resources are growing concerns
for all of us, not just in Singapore but around
the World. Energy efficiency is now universally
recognized as one of the quickest, most cost effective
ways to reduce energy related emissions associated
with global warming, climate change, acid rain and
smog. e-Energy, is a technical and educational information
source for individuals or organizations seeking
understanding on techniques, technologies and products
related to residential, commercial and industrial
energy efficiency.
Improving
energy efficiency is a key strategy in making the
world's energy system more economically and environmentally
sustainable. Though long a priority of the e-Energy,
the importance of energy efficiency has grown dramatically
in recent years due to global climate change commitments,
regional trade and investment pacts, local environmental
issues, and widespread recognition of the need for
sustainable development.
Potential
improvements in energy efficiency exist in all economies
and all sectors – in homes, offices, schools, hospitals,
factories, transportation systems, power plants,
district heating systems, etc.
