As the world grapples with the escalating climate crisis, energy efficiency is emerging as a vital—yet often overlooked—solution. Despite being one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to cut carbon emissions, it has been largely sidelined in the global discourse.
This year’s COP29 summit in Azerbaijan brought together leaders from industry, government, and academia to discuss pathways for sustainable development. Among the key topics, energy efficiency emerged as a focal point, with increasing attention on its ability to drive meaningful emissions reductions alongside renewable energy investments.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) has made it clear: energy efficiency could account for nearly half of the emissions reductions needed by 2030 to meet the Paris Agreement goals. But while it promises significant benefits, from reduced costs to improved resilience, global action has lagged behind.

One company taking the lead in addressing this gap is Tuya Smart, a global cloud platform service provider. At COP29, Tuya introduced its ‘Smart Decarb’ initiative, designed to harness the power of AI, IoT, and cloud computing to tackle carbon emissions.
