Some of the energy efficiency trends projected for 2023, especially in line with the goals of the 2030 agenda, are as follows:
- Increased adoption of renewable energy: Solar, wind, and geothermal energy are expected to become increasingly accessible and used to a greater extent for electricity generation.
- Increased use of electric vehicles: The use of electric vehicles is expected to increase due to the increased availability and reduced cost of lithium-ion batteries.
- Efficiency improvements in buildings and homes: Implementation of measures to increase energy efficiency in buildings and homes will continue, such as installing solar energy systems and improving insulation and heating and cooling systems.
- Focus on industrial efficiency: Industry is expected to work to reduce its energy consumption and improve efficiency by optimizing production processes and using energy more efficiently in its operations.
- Transformations in transportation: The use of lighter and more efficient vehicles will be encouraged, as well as improvements in public transportation infrastructure to reduce congestion and fuel consumption.
