The United States ranks **. 8 among the world's most energy-efficient nations, while the clean-energy powerhouse Germany holds the top slot, a new report found.*
Oil-rich Saudi Arabia, perhaps unsurprisingly, landed with a thud at the bottom of the list.
The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Eco**my (ACEEE) ranked 23 of the world’s top energy-consuming countries for its 2016 international scorecard (http://aceee.org/press/2016/07/germany-italy-and-japan-top-world), released Wednesday.*

Energy-efficient steps include outfitting buildings with intelligent lighting systems, creating cars with gas-sipping engines, adding public buses and trains to cities, and designing factories to power themselves.
