The findings of a study by A.T. Kearney, Inc. of the Industrial Energy Study of the Motor Vehicles Industries are presented. The scope of the study is limited to establishments in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) 371 and its 4-digit subindustries: motor vehicles and passenger car bodies (SIC 3711); truck and bus bodies (SIC 3713); motor vehicle parts and accessories (SIC 3714); and truck trailers (SIC 3715). Industries which produce raw materials and certain components which are used for production of motor vehicles are covered by other SIC groups, and were not included in the study. The information presented serves to characterize industry energy consumption by process and subprocess, by type of energy, and by geographic pattern of use; document the dynamics of energy supply in the industry; identify and describe potential for energy substitutions and conservation of petroleum fuels; determine factors affecting energy consumption efficiency within the industry; and identify key constraints limiting the productive capacity of the industry.
