Energy conservation is the practice of
decreasing the quantity of energy used by
efficient energy use or by reduced energy
consumption. |
|
The benefits of energy conservation are
countless and include consumer/corporate
savings, environmental/climate protection,
national security and personal security and
comfort. |
|
Energy conservation and associated lowered
energy demand is a driving force in research and
development of renewable energy sources that in
turn gives consumers greater flexibility in
choosing a preferred method of energy production
and forestalls the need for new power plants and
energy imports.

In Carol Stream, the Village is committed to
reducing the community’s carbon footprint and
one of the more effective ways to achieve this
aim is to encourage its residents and business
owners to assume their role as energy steward
where they live and work. Residents and
businesses looking for proven ways to reduce
their energy use should reference the
Alliance to Save Energy web site for a
primer on energy reduction strategies.
