Energy-efficiency improvement targets: primary metal industry (SIC 33)

Technical Report · Tue Mar 01 04:00:00 EST 1977

OSTI ID:6800056

Following public hearings on December 9, 1976, and review of the written comments which were submitted to FEA, the final targets for ''Primary Metal Industries'' (Standard Industrial Classification 33) were developed and are described in this report. This report is primarily for the steel, aluminum, iron foundries, or copper components. These four components represent 12 of the 26 four-digit components comprising SIC 33. In sum though, based on technological feasibility and economic practicability, it is judged that SIC 33 could lower its 1980 energy consumption 13.8% per unit of output over the 1972 base case year.
