- Innovative technologies to help customers meet
pressing environmental challenges
- Ambitious Company-wide 1-30-30 Goal- 1 absolute
GHG reduction by year-end 2012- 30 GHG
intensity (CO2/ rev) reduction by Y/E 2008
- 30 Energy intensity (Btu / rev) reduction by
Y/E 2012
- Challenges for Consumer Industrial- 109 plants
and warehouses worldwide- 30 of total GE GHG
emissions- GE heritage operations some plants
100 years old- Energy-intensive processes
3Re-lamping Re-motoring Initiatives
GEs family of Ultra energy savings products
reduce energy costs up to 50
GE XD Ultra motor exceeds NEMA Premium
minimum guaranteed efficiency
4Re-lamping Results
Before
- Year-to-date
- 44 Facilities Completed 32 in U.S., 2 CN, 10 MX
and PR - 65MM kWh/yr reduction
- 4.2MM reduction in energy costs
- Significantly improved illumination quality
After
- Projected Total Benefits
- 88MM kWh/yr reduction 54 plants
- 5.8MM/yr energy costs
- 64MM MT CO2/yr equivalent to reforestation of
19,000 acres of trees - Significant EPAct 2006 tax deductions
5Re-motoring
- 23 percent of all electricity consumed in the
United States almost 70 percent of
manufacturing sector electricity consumption - Average purchase price only 2 of lifetime
costelectricity is 98 - 1992 EPAct last mandated minimum
energy-efficiency standardnew one slated for
2009 - Per U.S. DOE, better motor system management can
reduce motor energy costs by 18 percent and
increase productivity, reliability
