Slide 1:Elizabeth Dutrow ENERGY STAR US EPA

Slide 2:What is ENERGY STAR?

Slide 3:Goals Energy management is institutionalized within manufacturing businesses Manufacturers show sustained energy performance

Slide 4:Model for management International Organization for Standardization (ISO) manufacturers know and use ISO quality and environmental standards continuous improvement is central companies maintain active systems for measuring, planning, improving, and evaluating performance

Slide 5:Basic commitment to improve Fundamental statement by upper management to continuously improve energy efficiency made by CEO/president or CFO Requires conscious focus on energy management

Slide 6:Strategic energy management

Slide 7:Basic measures Continuous improvement Measure, baseline and benchmark energy performance Performance goals Action plan Evaluate progress Reward achievements

Slide 8:Tailored approach to sectors Energy issues sometimes are unique to individual manufacturing industries ENERGY STAR Focuses provide a customized approach to energy management

Slide 9:ENERGY STAR Focuses Improve efficiency in an industry Create momentum for continued improvement Provide tools to enhance energy performance Uncover new energy saving opportunities Encourage sharing of ideas within the sector

Slide 10:A Focus provides . . . Support of the industry energy managers are convened Complete technical opportunities assessment a guide on energy efficiency options targeted to the industry’s energy and plant managers Plant Energy Performance Indicators external benchmarks for comparing plant performance in the industry

Slide 11:Energy Performance Indicator A tool that allows comparison of how efficiently a plant uses energy relative to those in the industry ranking/percentile score of a plant’s energy performance and normalized to the plant’s configuration based on actual energy use patterns in the industry and activities that influence energy use relates plant energy inputs to product outputs, the primary business of a plant, or to other factors beyond control of plant manager, e.g. weather, utilization, etc.

Slide 12:Efficiency guidance “Energy Efficiency Improvement Opportunities for XXXX: An ENERGY STAR® Guide for Energy and Plant Managers” Study and report prepared by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Process-specific and cross-cutting technologies/practices from around the world Estimation of energy savings potential Opportunities to be used now

Slide 13:Rewarding achievements

Slide 14:Benefits to companies Reduced energy costs & emissions Demonstrated environmental leadership Improved competitiveness

Slide 15:Focuses underway Automobile assembly (coordinating with Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers) plant energy performance indicator (EPI) energy guide completed annual energy efficiency forum Cement manufacturing (working with Portland Cement Association) EPI in development energy guide for cement plants energy efficiency forum Corn refining (working with Corn Refiners Association) EPI in development energy guide for corn milling completed energy efficiency forum Brewing (coordinating with Beer Institute) EPI provided energy guide for breweries energy efficiency forum Pharmaceutical manufacturing focus requested by industry and scheduled for Winter 2004
