Energy efficiency: Super savers: Meters to manage the future
Declan Butler1
- Declan Butler is a senior reporter for Nature based in Paris.
Abstract
Energy efficiency is one of the least flashy but most promising ways to cut carbon dioxide emissions. In the first of two features, Declan Butler explores the energy-saving possibilities of an intelligent electrical grid. In the second, Zoë Corbyn looks at how labs can cut their energy use.
This article is part of Nature's Climate Change 2007 special."Switch off the washing machine or dryer for the next 3 minutes, and let me buy, at 10 cents per kilowatt hour, 20% of your solar energy output.
