Northwest Food Processors Association is proposing to use Department of Energy funding to assist association companies to reduce their member-wide energy intensity reduction by 25percent within the next 10 years. Project goats are to: 1) Establish a 2008 energy intensity baseline for the NWFPA membership and to track progress toward achieving the energy intensity reduction goat against the baseline; (2) Identify the 10-year potential energy savings within a sample of food processors and analyze this potential against the 25 percent energy intensity reduction goal; (3) Determine the best approach by which food processors can obtain energy consumption data in order to make decisions that result in energy savings.
