In Practice
5: Implement Action Plan
California Portland Cement Company (CPC) uses annual sales and operations strategy meetings to promote the energy program to executives and middle management in order to ensure their continued support of the energy program. At the annual strategy meeting, the corporate energy manager gives a presentation outlining the energy program goals and achievements. Participation in these meetings puts energy management on the corporate strategy agenda. To maintain the strategic emphasis, energy management is a topic of discussion at all quarterly corporate cost review meetings, and is a frequent agenda item at executive, staff and board meetings. Continued executive involvement has paid off; in 2005 the energy saved from improved efficiency totaled nearly 48 million kBtu, enough energy to power 1,100 homes for a year.
