DOE's energy-saving tools help save energy in industrial buildings
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has distributed Save Energy Now CD-ROMSs containing energy-saving information and software to 3,500 large industrial plant managers across the nation as part of a DOE initiative to help cut excessive energy use at industrial facilities across the nation.
The CDs bring together - in a single product - a compendium of tip sheets, case studies, technical manuals, and software tools to help plants assess energy-saving opportunities. "President Bush has called on all Americans to be more energy efficient, and private industry, along with the federal government, are taking aggressive measures to reduce excessive energy consumption," DOE assistant secretary for energy efficiency and renewable energy Alexander Karsner said. "These Energy Department CDs, packed with energy-saving information, offer valuable information and energy-saving tools to enable plant managers to reduce their energy costs, and alleviate price pressure nationally."
