Fuel-Saving Strategies: IEA Urges Work-from-Home and Reduced Driving
In the wake of the Iran war and ensuing energy crisis, the International Energy Agency (IEA) - the global energy watchdog - is pushing for a new set of recommendations to help ease the pressure on energy supplies. Chief among these suggestions is the encouragement of remote work and slower driving to reduce fuel usage.
The IEA, established after the 1970s oil crisis to help safeguard global power supplies, has identified a list of ten actions that governments, businesses, and households can take to curb energy demands. The report emphasizes the importance of working from home and driving at slower speeds as two key strategies to address the current supply disruptions.
