{"Page URL":["https://www.appropedia.org/Beyond_Dams/End-Use_Efficiency"],"Page description":["It has long been recognized that programs designed to reduce energy needs represent an environmentally beneficial and, in many cases, cost-effective alternative to seeking new or eliminating existing sources of power. Such programs can motivate people to be more careful about the way they use energy, offer financial assistance in making homes and businesses more energy efficient (for example, by improving insulation or by installing high-efficiency appliances), or find ways to shift energy usage from on-peak to off-peak periods. Together, these types of measures have come to be known as demand-side management or (more recently) end-use efficiency."],"Page image":["File:Beyond Dams.png"],"Page language":["en"],"Page parent":["Beyond Dams"],"Page root":["Beyond Dams"],"Page title":["Beyond Dams/End-Use Efficiency"],"Page views":[2],"Page year":["Thursday, 01-Jan-26 00:00:00 UTC"],"Modification date":["Tuesday, 18-Aug-26 14:34:44 UTC"]}
