An energy-efficient industrial sector increases productivity, enhances global competitiveness and creates jobs.
Considerable Efficiency Opportunities
The United States industrial sector accounts for approximately one-third of domestic energy use, driving world-class manufacturing operations and powering the mining and refining of critical fuel. However, industrial energy consumption represents a considerable opportunity for energy efficiency. It directly benefits the United States economy through increased productivity, enhanced global competitiveness and job creation and retention.
The Alliance has worked to advance industrial energy efficiency for more than 25 years by supporting new, efficient technology solutions, promoting applied methods to increase the efficiency of existing manufacturing systems and mobilizing national energy efficiency initiatives.
