Abstract
National data show that improvement in industrial energy efficiency has stagnated for a decade and a half. Most corporations pay scant attention to energy use. Yet some companies exhibit outstanding performance in lowering their energy use per unit of product produced. One distinguishing characteristic of these companies is commitment to best practice energy management. Why do these companies pay attention to energy use while other companies do not? This paper tries to shed light on the answer to this question based on research conducted by the Alliance to Save Energy.
