Manufacturing Industry

Leveraging Information Technology to Create Profitable, Sustainableand Socially Responsible Systems for a Better Tomorrow

Today’s Energy: Quick Hits¨ Skyrocketing energy consumption:

► World consumption is up 45% since 1980► Expected to increase by 70% by 2030 and double by 2050► Emerging markets claim more than 75% of new demand

¨ CO2 emissions up by 33% since the industrialrevolution

¨ Price will only increase:► Increasing demand from emerging countries► Natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, Gulf of

Mexico oil spill, etc.► Political instability and Middle East geo-political tensions

The Industrial Sectors Contribution

¨ Main sources of industrial energy consumption are heating and cooling, motors, lighting and compressed air

Industry – 49%(including industrial buildings)

Transportation – 27%

Tertiary Building – 8%

Residential – 16%

The 30% EnergyReduction Challenge

Reduce your companies energy consumption by 30% over a five year period

Meeting the 30% Challenge¨ Short- and long-term energy reduction goals:

► 10 – 15% energy consumption reduction in the first year► 15 – 20% energy cost savings within the first year► 30% energy consumption reduction over 5 years

¨ Achieving a 30% energy consumption reduction:► Achieve 10 – 15% savings by using high efficiency equipment, sizing equipment

correctly, upgrading building envelope and insulation► Achieve 5 – 15% savings by turning off or idling equipment when not needed,

regulating motors and heating at optimal levels► Achieve 2 – 8% through a continual measurement & targeting program and

immediate reaction to consumption deviations

… but keep an eye out for:¨ Common pitfalls of an energy management strategy:

► Paralysis through analysis – there are many movingparts to an energy management strategy, start smalland constantly review and revise

► Unplanned or unmanaged shutdowns will adverselyaffect your energy consumption

► Ensure that your energy management strategy doesnot adversely affect your production throughput orquality

► Embrace automation – as processing equipment isreplaced or upgraded it should be integrated to your energy management system

► Keep momentum on the project – it might take a while to gain traction on some measures

Environmental Impact¨ Reduce your companies environmental footprint

► Use this socially responsible commitment to sustainability as a selling point to your customers

¨ Reduce greenhouse gas emissions► Reduce carbon dioxide emissions by millions of

pounds per year

¨ Reduce poisonous chemical emissions► Reduce mercury, nitrous oxide and sulfur dioxide

emissions by thousands of pounds per year
