Abstract
A first step in realizing industrial energy
efficiency opportunities is to understand how
industry is using, and losing, energy. The U.S.
Manufacturing Energy and Carbon Footprints
provide a reliable macro-scale reference for
manufacturing energy use benchmarking. The
footprint analysis incorporates published energy use
and loss data with layers of peer review to develop a
macroscopic view, the big picture, of energy use
in U.S. manufacturing.
