The need for innovation is compelling

What do we know about energy?

• 10‐20% or more is wasted

• Energy prices will rise

• Some companies are seeing great savings by managing energy

The need for innovation

• Cannot expect to perform as in the past and expect different results

• We need to look at things differently

• Will require culture change in organizations

• We need to manage energy 

• Industries grow when common standards are followed

Thoughts of a manufacturer

In a time like this when most business owners are focusing closely on ensuring our day‐to‐day survival, we truly need MNCEME to take the long view.  Successful implementation of the Centers recommendations will help ensure that, when the economy turns around, we will have the pool of skilled workers our region needs for continued growth.
