AWARENESS ABOUT ENERGY EFFICIENCY AS A PILLAR FOR SUSTAINABILITY

There are several and relevant pillars in building a more sustainable planet, among them, we need to look head-on at energy efficiency, which means generating the same amount of energy with fewer natural resources or obtaining the same service ("performing work") with less energy, is one of the Sustainable Development Goals and has its goals so that it can guarantee universal access to sustainable sources and affordable prices and thus successfully guarantee the demand that is increasingly increasing on the planet.

There are several and relevant pillars in building a more sustainable planet, among them, we need to look head-on at energy efficiency, which means generating the same amount of energy with fewer natural resources or obtaining the same service (“performing work”) with less energy, is one of the Sustainable Development Goals and has its goals so that it can guarantee universal access to sustainable sources and affordable prices and thus successfully guarantee the demand that is increasingly increasing on the planet.

There are many ways and solutions to increase energy efficiency such as wind energy, solar energy, biomass, ocean energy, among others. We are talking about these sources in a macro way, where companies and governments responsible for energy distribution should be seeking this transition to more sustainable sources, but these solutions unfold and can also be looked at by companies in general, where they can seek to adapt these places of jobs and also by each of us individuals, seeking to bring energy awareness to our daily lives and to our homes, understanding the classification of appliances and good practices to collaborate in general with this theme.

And there are still many obstacles to taking energy efficiency on a large scale, so that this transition takes place completely, a new market (not so new) for the vast majority, has been bringing guidelines for implementation, which goes through new regulations and discussions involving various sectors of society on the implementation of the topic on a large scale.

As one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, some of the goals and directions for the topic in this decade are:

• By 2030, ensure universal, reliable, modern and affordable access to energy services.
• By 2030, substantially increase the share of renewable energies in the global energy matrix.
• By 2030, double the global rate of improvement in energy efficiency.
• By 2030, strengthen international cooperation to facilitate access to clean energy research and technologies, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, and advanced and cleaner fossil fuel technologies, and promote investment in energy infrastructure and clean energy technologies.
• By 2030, expand infrastructure and modernize technology to provide modern and sustainable energy services to all in developing countries, particularly least developed countries, small island developing States and landlocked developing countries, in accordance with their respective support programs.

Aligning with the UN proposal, where it has been constantly reminding us that we are in the “decade of action”, thinking about contributing to the development and education of this topic in our country, NTICS Projetos inaugurated in December 2022 in Manaus, a space museum that invites us to reflect on the theme in a global and individual way. Understanding the importance of this theme in the Amazon, the proposal is that together we raise awareness and the urgency of the transition in our habits and choices inherent to the theme on a large scale, bringing more sustainable sources into our daily lives, whether in our cities, companies or inside our homes.

It is expected that 4,000 students from the region will be taken to the space to learn about and talk about energy efficiency, so that different generations from different sectors of society will converge towards a healthier place on our planet.

It is unthinkable to imagine the modern world without energy. It is fundamental for the functioning of the economy, to enable communication and connection over long distances, to light up spaces. Since this issue is one of the most crucial to be resolved today on the planet, we need to look at it more clearly.
