Description

Argentina created the National Energy Efficiency Commission on 31 March 1970. The commission studied methods to reduce fuel consumption in industry, transportation, and public utilities. Specialists evaluated technology that could reduce energy waste. Their early reports guided government incentives for modern equipment and better industrial processes. The commission encouraged cooperation among energy producers, engineers, and researchers. Its establishment supported long-term planning during a period of rising energy demand. It became a foundation for later national energy policies.
