Energy conservation refers to reducing energy consumption through using less of an energy service. Energy conservation differs from efficient energy use‚ which refers to using less energy for a constant service.[1] For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services
