dc.description.abstract | Energy conservation as a formal program in Dow originated in the early 1970's. From 1972 until the end of 1983, DOW recorded an energy performance improvement in excess of 30%. The essential features of the energy conservation program which contributed to this improvement include: ( a) awareness of prudent utilization of energy, (b) process improvements, and (c) more efficient generation of energy. The latter two features require capital. Process improvements tend to be numerous, smaller in size, and authorized and financed as a part of Dow's regular capital program. Capital projects relating to the more efficient generation of energy generally refer to DOW'S large Gulf Coast combined cycle cogeneration projects, most of which came on stream during the period 1981-1983. These projects have been generally large capital installations where separate | en |
