World Energy Efficiency Day *

World Energy Efficiency Day is celebrated on March 5th. World Energy Efficiency Day was inaugurated at the First International Meeting on Energy Efficiency held in Austria in March 1998, where more than 350 experts from 50 countries discussed strategies to address the global energy crisis and work out possible solutions. The event received little media coverage, but World Energy Efficiency Day has been observed every year since its inaugural celebration on March 5, 1999.
