Background: The Company did not have centralized administration and management of its energy costs and consumption,
resulting in a lack of organized energy programs for its manufacturing and research facilities and an inability to implement energy conservation
techniques into the design and construction of its new facilities.
Solution: An energy program was established, with centralized administration to deal with all energy-related issues.
Multi-faceted and interdisciplinary programs and policies were created to reduce energy consumption and costs at all facilities.
Result: The Company's energy costs and consumption were significantly reduced, using the latest conservation innovations
as well as technologies and programs that protected the environment. Energy conservation techniques were also incorporated into the construction of
new facilities.
