Abstract

This document briefly describes the Department of Energy`s (DOE`s) Office of Industrial Technologies (OIT) program. It profiles the energy, economic, and environmental characteristics of OIT`s principal customers--the materials and process industries--that consume nearly 80% of all energy used by industry in the US. OIT-supported research, development, and demonstration (RD and D) activities relating to these industries are described as well as OIT`s crosscutting technology programs that target the needs of multiple US industries. Quantitative estimates of the potential benefits (or metrics) to US industry of many current OIT-supported technologies are also discussed.

The Office of Industrial Technologies - enhancing the competitiveness, efficiency, and environmental quality of American industry through technology partnerships

Technical Report

A critical component of the Federal Government`s effort to stimulate improved industrial energy efficiency is the DOE`s Office of Industrial Technologies (OIT). OIT funds research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) efforts and transfers the resulting technology and knowledge to industry. This document describes OIT`s program, including the new Industries of the Future (IOF) initiative and the strategic activities that are part of the IOF process. It also describes the energy, economic, and environmental characteristics of the materials and process industries that consume nearly 80% of all energy used by manufacturing in the United States. OIT-supported RD&D activities relating to these industriesmore »« less

Industrial energy efficiency in a competitive environment: Transforming the motor system market through the use of partnerships

Conference Hirsch, G

The US Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Industrial Technologies (OIT) is home to the Motor Challenge (MC), an industry-government partnership designed to help industry capture 5 billion kilowatt-hours per year of electricity savings by the year 2000. Two aspects of the Motor Challenge differentiate it from other high efficiency motor initiatives. First, it addresses the entire motor system: drive, motor, pump, compressor, fan, blower, power distribution, etc. It shifts the focus from increasing the efficiency of any one component to how those components are selected and combined: the performance of the entire system. It is this area that holdsmore »« less
An innovative partnership program between the Department of Energy, industry, and small business

Conference Hattrup, M; Conger, R; Hart, F

Moving an idea from a concept to the marketplace is a long and difficult climb. At each step, trials and pitfalls can hinder an innovator's progress. Many innovators received assistance to overcome those obstacles with the help of the US Department of Energy's (DOE's) Office of Industrial Technology's (OIT's) Innovative Concepts (InnCon) Program. InnCon is one of six Alliance for Industrial Excellence programs within OIT. Throughout the country, creative thinkers are finding ways to save energy and increase industrial productivity with the early phase assistance provided by the Innovative Concepts Program. The InnCon Program provides seed money to allow innovatorsmore »« less
Office of Industrial Technologies: Summary of program results

Technical Report

Working in partnership with industry, the US Department of Energy`s (DOE`s) Office of Industrial Technologies (OIT) is helping reduce industrial energy use, emissions, and waste while boosting productivity. Operating within the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EE), OIT conducts research, development, demonstration, and technology transfer efforts that are producing substantial, measurable benefits to industry. This document summarizes some of the impacts of OIT`s programs through 1997.
