SUMMARY:2025 Summer Study on Energy Efficiency in Industry
DESCRIPTION:THEME: INDUSTRIAL COMPETITIVENESS\, DECARBONIZATION\, AND THE ENERGY TRANSITION\nThe industrial sector accounts for one third of the U.S. primary energy use\, so the energy transition presents enormous opportunities and risks for this sector. Industrial competitiveness is going to depend on continued investments in innovation\, efficiency\, and decarbonization. \n\nResearch and development have always been a national strength. The transition also requires innovation in business models across the energy spectrum.\nLawrence Berkeley National Lab estimates that only 50% of industrial energy is used productively – leading to an enormous waste of resources. Cost reduction through efficiency is a proven pathway to profitability.\nOur trading partners are creating low-carbon standards\, while continuing their own journeys of electrification combined with reductions in embodied carbon.\n\nHow do you take advantage of the opportunity and minimize the risk? How does your network support you? The 2025 Summer Study on Energy Efficiency in Industry brings together professionals from around the globe to Charlotte\, North Carolina – ground zero for recent industrial investment\, accompanied by a statewide commitment to carbon neutrality in the electricity sector by the year 2050. We will look at policies\, funding\, operations\, and technology to sustain industrial competitiveness\, for individual firms and the sector at large. We’ll ask how public-private partnerships can act now to develop the workforce we need for success. We’ll compare national and state policy to look for immediate advantage and long-term leverage. \nYou’ll leave the Summer Study with an expanded network and an action plan to meet your goals.
