The Energy Analysis and Diagnostic Center (EADC) program provides energy-conserving and cost-saving assistance to small and medium-size manufacturers in 36 states. Engineering faculty from 13 universities, assisted by stu dents, analyze energy usage and manufacturing operations in each plant and then prepare an individualized report that recommends specific actions and estimates their costs and their benefits. Manufacturing plants are eligible if they meet the size criteria and are not more than 150 miles from an EADC. The US Department of Energy, Office of Industrial Programs, sponsors the EADC program, which is managed by University City Science Center, through its Industrial Technology and Energy Management (ITEM) Division. This and similar reports are prepared from data which ITEM staff members extract as they review every energy audit report prepared by the EADCs. Eventually these data also include the results of manufacturers' implementation of EADCs' recommendations, together with costs and savings. 14 tabs.
