Explainer-Energy efficiency could offer major climate wins. But what is it?
What if the world could quickly slash climate-warming emissions, without having to build so much new renewable energy capacity? At least 118 countries at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai have backed a pledge to improve energy efficiency rates by 4% each year until 2030. The International Energy Agency (IEA) has called efficiency the "first fuel" of the energy transition and one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
