1.1 Importance of reducing energy consumption

Annual global energy production increased more than 10-fold during the 20th century. Even today, economic growth, the development of poor countries and population growth are inextricably linked to rising energy consumption. Oil, gas and coal account for around 85% of the total . As these energy sources are fossil fuels, production will not always be able to increase. What's more, their use emits CO ₂ , widely recognized as responsible for the greenhouse effect and global warming...
