Топливосберегающее направление электрификации

I have seen the word направление throughout this text translated as 'direction' but I think something more like approach is more suitable. What do Russian natives think?

A new report issued by the American Public Power Association (APPA) analyzes trends in electrification and identifies at least three major hurdles that need to be overcome to realize wider adoption of electrification. The report, which was prepared by Paul Zummo, Director for Research and Development at APPA, said that the electrification of end-use technologies, such as electric space and water heating as well as electric vehicles (EVs), offers potential benefits to the environment and consumers. Electrification efforts that are both environmentally beneficial and comparatively economical have been termed beneficial or efficient electrification. The report analyzes trends in electrification deployment through the current day and discusses potential developments. Potential benefits of electrification include, but are not limited to, reduced CO2 emissions, more efficient use of energy, long-term fuel savings, and lower overall monthly energy costs, the report said.
