How to reference this medium
Five examples from everyday life (electric power and heat generation, power distribution, construction, lighting, and transportation) are used to show how energy saving reduces the consumption of individual energy sources (primary or secondary).
Information and ideas:
Students can look for further examples. What is the significance of energy saving in relation to the general scarcity of resources? Can it be equated roughly with the harnessing of renewable energy sources?
