Using Common Sense and Emerging Technologies to Reduce Energy Use, 18PaperCon



Some paper companies have done an excellent job of benchmarking energy performance and reducing energy use. Several new technologies are being applied in pulp and paper mills to reduce energy use. Cost of energy ranges from ten to forty percent of total manufacturing cost with an average of 18 percent. This paper compares energy costs for five major paper grades for paper mills in the United States. The Wisconsin Focus on Energy program works with paper mills to benchmark energy performance and identify opportunities to reduce energy use. New technologies are monitored and recommended to paper mills where new concepts can provide significant reductions in energy use. The Focus on Energy program provides economic incentives to evaluate and install new technologies.
