The International Energy Agency (IEA) in 2021 stated that “40 percent of the emission cuts required to reach global climate goals would come from energy efficiency”. Increased awareness of energy saving has prompted consumers to shift their focus toward sustainable technological products. The sale and usage of green technologies have also become one of the national priorities in the country. On this World Energy Conservation Day, falling on December 14, here is our pick of energy efficient and high-performing gizmos.
