Corning: investment in reducing energy usage has led to very positive results

摘要

Corning Incorporated reports that the company's efforts to reduce its energy intensity in its global fiber and cable manufacturing facilities has enabled it to achieve both a sizeable reduction in energy as well considerable operational savings. A press release said that Corning has reduced its energy intensity by half through technology upgrades, equipment optimization, and sharing best sustainability practices across the business. Of note, energy intensity is not the same as energy use: it is a measure of kilowatt hours of energy used for each km of fiber or cable manufactured.
