kraftreduksjon
Kraftreduksjon refers to the deliberate reduction of electrical power consumption or demand in a system. The concept is used across engineering, information technology, and energy management to improve efficiency, reduce operating costs, and lower environmental impact. Kraftreduksjon can be achieved through design choices that lower power draw, through runtime strategies that reduce power during periods of low workload, and through policy measures that shift demand away from peaks.
Within electronics and computing, kraftreduksjon encompasses low-power design, the use of sleep or idle states, dynamic
In buildings and industry, kraftreduksjon is pursued via energy management systems, demand response, and process scheduling.
Outcomes are measured in watts or kilowatts of instantaneous power and kilowatt-hours of energy saved over
