Session D
Thursday, July 26— 10:30 - 12:00

PANELS PRESENTING: PAPERS BEING PRESENTED:

Panel Number: 1

Panel Title: Energy Markets and Global Competition

Session Title: Roundtable—Innovation, Transformation, and Industrial Competitiveness

  • Skip Laitner, ACEEE

  • Karen Ehrhardt-Martinez, ACEEE

  • Christina Galitsky, LBNL

The discussion surrounding industrial efficiency gains typically focuses on industry's own use of energy and the set of technologies that might cost-effectively reduce that consumption. Often overlooked is industry's role as a primary developer of the new materials and technologies that can generate large efficiency gains within all other sectors of the economy. This panel explores recent work on industrial innovation and highlights a number of emerging technologies that may foster an even greater energy savings than might be apparent from looking at industry's own current energy use patterns alone.
