Energy efficiency means using less input energy and producing same output energy.

A regular incandescent light bulb uses input energy to produce the same output as the compact fluorescent light bulb.

Thus, using a compact fluorescent light bulb instead of regular incandescent bulb is an example of energy efficiency.
