Suppliers Partnership for the Environment Unveils Energy Optimization Playbook
The Suppliers Partnership for the Environment (SP) has introduced a comprehensive Energy Optimization Playbook aimed at empowering manufacturers to enhance their energy efficiency initiatives. This guide serves as a valuable resource for industrial manufacturers seeking to align their energy performance with overall business objectives.
Practical Guidance for Energy Improvement
The playbook offers step-by-step instructions tailored for small and medium-sized manufacturers. It assists companies at all stages of their energy optimization journey—from understanding internal goals and assembling cross-functional energy teams, to securing funding, minimizing energy waste, and maximizing returns on energy investments.
Quotes from Leadership
Kellen Mahoney, the executive director of SP, stated, "This new resource is part of SP's ongoing commitment to equip companies with actionable tools that facilitate the transition from commitment to tangible results. Our structured approach, which is supported by real-world case studies, empowers manufacturers of any size to explore opportunities, tackle challenges, and scale impactful energy optimization projects while reducing waste and ensuring long-term benefits."
Collaboration and Development Process
Developed through a collaborative effort, the playbook was chaired by RENEW Energy Partners and includes insights from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), suppliers, and other stakeholders. It features case studies from reputable companies like General Motors and Magna and cites various public tools such as the U.S. Department of Energy's 50001 Ready Navigator.
Additional Resources Provided
The Energy Optimization Playbook comes with a complimentary editable version of the General Motors Energy Treasure Map tool. This spreadsheet tool helps facility teams systematically define, categorize, and prioritize energy optimization initiatives effectively.
Charlie Lord, Co-Founder and Principal of RENEW Energy Partners, expressed pride in the collaboration with SP on this project. He emphasized, "By providing a clear roadmap and detailing practical financing options, our playbook equips sustainability leaders with the necessary tools to implement change in their organizations without needing vast expertise in energy management."
