Energy & Sustainability Services

1. Energy & Sustainability Services “SMART” Conference February 22, 2010 Bill Meffert Enterprise Innovation Institute Georgia Institute of Technology

2. Energy & Sustainability Services • Technical • Assessments: • Energy • Lean & Green • OSHA • Environmental Compliance • Technology Applications • Environmental Network • Implementation Assistance • Management • Management Systems • Energy (EnMS) • Environmental (EMS) • Safety & Health • Integrated MS • Continual Improvement Coaching • Training • Gap Analysis Sustainability

3. Energy System Assessments • Assessments targeted at most energy intensive industries and most intensive energy systems • Compressed Air • Fans • Process Heating • Pumping • Steam • Conducted by DOE Energy Experts • Plant personnel are trained on DOE software tools GEFA GT Qualified Specialists have conducted > 40 ESAs

4. Industrial Assessment Centers • DOE's 26 university-based Industrial Assessment Centers (IACs) train engineering students for careers in industrial energy efficiency • IACs serve 300+ plants per year (under 1 TBtu/yr) and typically identify savings of 8%-10% or $115,000/plant • Database of 13,500 assessment results: http://iac.rutgers.edu/database http://www1.eere.energy.gov/industry/bestpractices/iacs.html

5. Power Partners (GSN) LEAN & GREEN Assessment: 3 days, “green” value stream map • Power Partners by the Numbers • Estimated energy savings of $600,000 • Reduced tank inventory by 34 percent • Cut supply chain lead time from 17 days to less than a week • Reduced water usage by 10,000 gallons daily • Improved quality and productivity

6. Training Plant managers and consulting engineers can use ITP’s system- and component-specific training sessions that focus on improving energy management and the use of the software tools. End-User Training • Hands-on, one- and two-day trainings at different locations around the country are taught by expert instructors • Webcasts provide an introduction to energy management and other special topics • Data Center Workshops provide information on state-of-the-art strategies to improve data center energy intensity Specialist Training • Interested Federal personnel can take training to become a Qualified Specialist. http://www1.eere.energy.gov/industry/bestpractices/training.html

7. The Management System “Umbrella” Energy and Air Quality Security Safety Public Image Compliance Solid Waste Productivity & efficiency P2 • An “umbrella” to integrate stove-piped systems and objectives • Dynamic, flexible approaches • Leads to continual improvement & sustained savings

8. ISO Project Committee 242 ISO Secretary-General Alan Bryden: "This first meeting of PC 242 marks the launch of a new global approach to systematically address energy performance in organizations – pragmatically addressing energy efficiency and related climate change impacts. It is fully in line with and supportive of the global mobilization on these major challenges, and with the IEA-ISO position paper on the contribution of International Standards." ISO 50001

9. U.S. Council for Energy Efficiency Manufacturing Collaboration of industry, government, and non-profit organizations • Seek to improve the energy intensity of U.S. manufacturing through a series of initiatives. • Guide development of the Superior Energy Performance program
