What is the difference between renewable energy and energy efficiency?
Simply put, renewable energy provides clean power while energy efficiency is either doing the same amount of work with less power or avoiding the use of power altogether. For more on energy efficiency you can click on the links above. For a discussion on the difference between energy efficiency and energy conservation go to Alliance to Save Energy and if you want to get even more technical check out American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy. Energy efficiency is really the most cost effective way to immediately impact our energy and environmental problems; to find out more and what you can do at your home or business to save energy and money go to the Great Valley Center’s energy efficiency section of our web page.
