This week, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) announced the Sustainability in Manufacturing Partnership. Through this partnership fostered by DOE’s Better Plants program, DOE and the NAM will work together to help U.S. manufacturers drive energy productivity improvements and accelerate adoption of energy efficient technologies. The Sustainability in Manufacturing Partnership will provide DOE and the NAM opportunities to engage directly with manufacturers, identify energy efficiency improvements, and recognize companies and leaders that have led the way in innovative strategies. 4/10/2018
