11 Scoring Energy Performance ENERGY STAR Energy Performance Indicators (EPIs): Sector-specific energy benchmarking tools for industrial sites. Compare the energy efficiency of a plant against the performance of the industry. Evaluate whole-plant performance for all fuels (kwh, Therms, etc.) Based on annual energy use and production (energy intensity). Normalized for product mix, size, location, and other factors. Establishes an energy performance scale for the industry.

12 How EPIs are developed U.S. companies report production, energy, and other data to the U.S. Census. U.S. Census data forms the basis for the EPIs Researchers at Duke University analyze this data to evaluate how factors such as product mix, size, location, etc. affect energy use & intensity. A statistical model that reflects the actual distribution of energy performance in the sector is created and put into a spreadsheet (EPI). This model normalizes for statistically significant differences between plants. The model prevents disclosure of confidential company data. The EPI (model) is tested by industry representatives and revised (as necessary) based on industry feedback.

15 ENERGY STAR Certification Sector-specific recognition for best-in-class energy performance. Recognition is based on a site s Energy Performance Score using an ENERGY STAR Energy Performance Indicator (EPI). The plant must have a score 75 or higher. The plant must also pass an environmental compliance screen. Plants earn the ENERGY STAR annually.

16 ENERGY STAR Recognition Recognition from EPA through ENERGY STAR helps energy programs to motivate teams, develop momentum, and build support. ENERGY STAR offers three forms of recognition for manufacturers: ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Recognizes world-class corporate energy management programs. ENERGY STAR Plant Label Recognizes plants that score in the top 25 percent on the ENERGY STAR energy performance scale based on use of an ENERGY STAR Plant Energy Performance Indicator. ENERGY STAR Challenge for Industry Recognizes sites that reduce their energy intensity by 10%.
