solid state switches, relays instead of mechanical
graphene for use in ultra-capacitors
PV and organic PV over fossil fuel use
OLED displays reduce need for backlight and are thinner over LCD
quantum hall effect reduce B necessary
Multi-functional materials - e.g. PV for building materials -- that can reduce overall building material use
more advanced PV cuts material use in the PV but also the BOS
PV replacement of batteries
size reduction on electronics
mutliuse devices -- see for example the long list of devices potentially eliminated with Hardware replaced by a smartphone
remote energy savings - control furnace from airport
thermostat controls
Energy efficiency improvements from semiconductor applications
hybrid electric vehicles
LED over both CFL and incandescent lighting
photovoltaics
more efficient inverters, DC/DC converters
quantum hall effect reduces energy use in elecro-magnet
reduced power usage in computers - via Quantum spin hall effect
travel to stores - e-shopping
travel for social interaction, education, work (telecommuting), banking, commerce, etc.
