Energy conservation vs. Energy savings
Hi,

Wikipedia currently directly links Energy Savings to Energy Conservation, but I am not sure this is correct. From what I can understand (no sources here), Energy Savings are a measure of how efficiently your system is performing against a previous system, i.e. you are spending less energy for, say, use your lights as you install more energy-efficient bulbs. If you leave all the lights on, you will save energy as they are using less energy per bulb, but you will be not conserving energy, since you could turn the lights off at times.

Can anyone shed some lights on this issue?
