Industry and Agriculture Program
The Industrial sector offers many opportunities
for significant efficiency gains.
|
Improving efficiency of industrial systems will decrease
energy use and pollution, while increasing the economic viability
of the Industrial sector in the United States.
 |
October, 2009 - In a recent white paper, Barriers to energy efficiency investments and energy management in the industrial sector [PDF], ACEEE's industry team outlines the four primary barriers to industrial energy efficiency investments, and offers recommendations for policy and program solutions. |
|
September, 2009 - ACEEE's new report, Industrial Energy Efficiency Programs: Identifying Today’s Leaders and Tomorrow’s Needs, discusses the history of industrial energy efficiency programs, what we know about how industrial firms make energy efficiency investments, the current state of industrial energy efficiency programs, and future issues and challenges facing such programs. |
ACEEE's Industry Program is associated with the following groups:
► Industrial Program Managers Network
A group of Industrial Energy Efficiency Program managers who share best practices, offer advice to colleagues, and coordinate to learn about effective ways to implement energy efficiency programs in the manufacturing sector. |
► The Alliance for Materials Manufacturing Excellence (AMMEX)
A network of trade associations and industrial firms that seek to enhance the competitiveness of American manufacturing through energy efficiency and other sound investments. |
► Industrial Working Group
A group comprising energy-intensive industrial firms, industrial trade associations, and manufacturers of energy-efficient equipment for the industrial sector. The group works to support existing industrial energy efficiency programs and develops policy and program recommendations for federal- and state-level industrial energy efficiency efforts. |
