![]() DELEG allocated the three-year grant to UM for the center using funds provided to it by the DOE’s Save Energy Now Program. “Energy intensive industries have been under tremendous economic stress in recent years due to global competition and high energy prices,” DELEG Director Stanley “Skip” Pruss said in a statement announcing the program. “A key objective of the MEIC is to help these industries become more economically competitive by assisting manufacturers in achieving significant energy savings in their operations.” The hope is that the center will reduce energy usage by six trillion Btu and cut greenhouse gas emissions by a million metric tons during the three-year life of the grant. |
