[Matt Malinowski @mattxmal]

EPA is proposing to eliminate the ENERGY STAR label for one-way air central air conditioners and furnaces:
▶️signaling that #heatpumps are THE efficient choice
▶️shifting utility incentives
▶️changing the market

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

Sometimes innovation is about new technology — sometimes it’s about new ways of promoting proven solutions.
@CLASPappliances’s 2022 Annual Report highlights how we’re using innovative strategies to increase #EnergyEfficiency around the world: https://t.co/RaHCyYgnH0

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

#EnergyEfficiency advancements are leaving low-income and people of color behind — our 2022 research confirmed that, and our Financing Facility launched last year is trying to fix it.
CLASP tackles inequity in sector, featured in our 2022 annual report: https://t.co/RaHCyYgnH0

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

Each year demands even higher-impact work to reach 2030 climate deadlines.
From a global CFL phase-out to carbon reduction in the world’s largest growing energy market, 2022 was a banner year.

4.The #OGCCC 2022 winners, @solar_cooling @newleafdynamic, are being recognized and given a financial boost to upscale fossil-fuel-free, affordable, life-changing technology. Congratulations, and thank you to all the participants!

1.Globally an astonishing 40% of food is lost post-harvest due to lack of adequate cold storage – many crops spoil in just one day. So, what can we do about it? 🧵⬇️

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

3.There ARE #SolutionsOnStandby — they just need to be identified and better funded. That’s precisely what the Global @LEAP_Awards Off-Grid Cold Chain Challenge is doing. (Press release here: https://t.co/1oBpDqV767)

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

Gender diversity in the energy sector is vital for effective and just solutions. There are 76% more men than women in the field, yet energy poverty disproportionally impacts women.

After three years, I returned to New Delhi to meet with our wonderful team and partners. Since I last visited, the CLASP India doubled (!) and expanded our work on more critical appliances. I share some of my reflections here: https://t.co/hUOnfgRX0q

Change may be slow, but its coming. https://t.co/CbqohnDpI2

CLASP’s newest report “World’s Best MEPS” analyzes and highlights appliance energy efficiency policy leaders from around the world, but ALL economies can take specific steps to achieve more ambitious standards.

#OffGridSolarForum opening session: Business as usual growth will leave over 500 million people behind. Mainly across Africa.We need more business model innovation. More supply & end user subsidy. More focus on serving hardest to reach.

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

One of our world’s best #SolutionsOnStandby is boosting appliance energy efficiency. Thanks to all of CLASP’s partners for continuing the hard work of researching, communicating, and advocating. Not just on #EEDay2022, but every day.

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

Today is Energy @EfficiencyDay, which is no different than any other day for me. Prioritizing appliance efficiency is SO critical to handling some of the irreversible climate damage and preventing even more.

[Christine Egan @ceganCLASP1]

All of our problems cannot be solved by more efficient appliances. But the enormous amount of good they can do–improving the health of women & children, giving communities power to learn and do business, making a home more livable– is powerful.
