| Summary: | Energy efficiency is seen more often as
a means of reducing energy consumption and costs than as a
way to expand the production of goods and services. But it
can help raise a company’s manufacturing capacity, improve
the quantity and quality of a city’s water supply, and
provide more heating and cooling to improve attendance and
learning in schools - all while keeping energy costs down.
It is important to recognize such benefits of energy
efficiency for low- and middle-income countries - and to
factor them into economic assessments of projects and programs. |
