The European Commission announced Tuesday that it would promote the use of information and communications technologies (ICT) to improve energy efficiency throughout the economy, starting with buildings, lighting and the power grid. “To meet Europe’s energy efficiency goals by 2020, we need a high-growth, low-carbon economy. Research and rapid take-up of innovative energy efficient ICT solutions will be crucial to lowering emissions across the whole economy,” said Viviane Reding, European Union (EU) commissioner for information society and media.
