Energy efficiency and renewable energy resources are frequently paired as complementary strategies for achieving carbon neutrality, climate mitigation, and sustainable development, as evidenced by their joint inclusion in policy frameworks [1], [2], and [3]. They are recognized as core components of energy transition strategies [4], [5], [6], and [7], often implemented together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and replace fossil fuel reliance [8], [9], and [10].
