| Abstract: | Trends in key energy-use sectors and prospects for improved efficiency in the future are discussed, particularly in the light of the contribution which energy efficiency might make to future reductions in CO2 emissions. The OECD countries reduced their energy-use through greater efficiency by nearly 32 EJ, or 16 million bbl/day oil equivalent between 1972-1985. However, the pace of these improvement in energy-use has begun to slow. Efforts to improve energy efficiency will have to be strengthened if the goal of a significant absolute reduction in CO2 emissions from energy-use is to be achieved. |
