Energy Efficient
Energy Efficient is a label given to products or procedures that use less energy to perform a task. Energy efficiency can reduce carbon emissions and benefit the environment. Energy efficient buildings use less energy to heat, cool, and utilize appliances and electronics. Manufacturing facilities can also be energy efficient by reducing the energy used to produce goods.
