This report compiles a range of benchmark curves and indicators for energy intensive industries and products. The data presented
cover approximately 55% of final manufacturing industry energy use including energy use in refineries. The analysis differentiates between ICs and DCs. Based on the benchmarking data, the study
provides: an overview of the current technical energy
saving potentials based on today's BPT; a simplified economic analysis to assist a better understanding of the reasons why one country has a higher level of energy efficiency than another; and projections through to 2030 which analyse the potential effect of implementing BPT and other best available energy saving technologies.
