Industrial Energy Efficiency Program. Annual report, July 1977-December 1978

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5689094
This second annual report establishes voluntary 1980 energy-conservation targets for America's energy-consumptive industries. During 1977 and 1978, America's ten most energy-intensive industries (chemicals; primary metals; petroleum and coal products; stone, clay, and glass products; paper; food; fabricated metals; transportation equipment; machinery except electrical; and textile products) achieved energy-efficiency improvements of 11 and 14%, respectively, in comparison to 1972 levels of energy efficiency. The rate of improvement in energy-use efficiency supports reasonable confidence that 1980 energy-efficiency-improvement goals for these industries will be achieved. (MCW)
