Meeting this target will require action from all sectors ofthe California economy, including industry. The industrial sector consumes 25% of theenergy used and emits 28% of the carbon dioxide (CO2) produced in the state. Manycountries around the world have national-level GHG reduction or energy-efficiency targets,and comprehensive programs focused on implementation of energy efficiency and GHGemissions mitigation measures in the industrial sector are essential for achieving their goals.A combination of targets and industry-focused supporting programs has led to significantinvestments in energy efficiency as well as reductions in GHG emissions within the industrialsectors in these countries. This project has identified program and policies that haveeffectively targeted the industrial sector in other countries to achieve real energy and CO2savings. Programs in Ireland, France, The Netherlands, Denmark, and the UK were chosenfor detailed review. Based on the international experience documented in this report, it isrecommended that companies in California's industrial sector be engaged in a program toprovide them with support to meet the requirements of AB32, The Global Warming SolutionAct. As shown in this review, structured programs that engage industry, require members toevaluate their potential efficiency measures, plan how to meet efficiency or emissionsreduction goals, and provide support in achieving the goals, can be quite effective atassisting companies to achieve energy efficiency levels beyond those that can be expected tobe achieved autonomously.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-3551E</style></custom2></record></records></xml>
