Sustainability strategies for the future of energy supply

Individual energy use and carbon footprints:
- Reducing personal energy use (e.g. turning off lights, using energyefficient appliances).
- Using public transport, cycling, or electric vehicles to reduce emissions.
- Adopting renewable energy sources (e.g. solar panels at home).
Energy conservation:
- Designing homes, workplaces, and transport for sustainability
- Insulating buildings to reduce heating and cooling needs.
- Using renewable energy systems (e.g. solar panels, heat pumps).
- Designing energy-efficient public transport systems.
Demand reduction:
- Encouraging energy-saving habits (e.g. shorter showers, turning off devices).
- Smart meters to monitor and reduce energy use.
Use of technology to increase efficiency in fossil fuels:
- Carbon capture and storage (CCS) to reduce emissions.
- More efficient power plants and vehicles.
