4: Create Action Plan
4.2: Determine Roles and Resources
Securing Resources through Capital and Maintenance Energy Budgets
Eastman Chemical Company's increased visibility of their Corporate Energy Program allowed the Corporate Energy Manager the opportunity to communicate to upper management that low-risk, high-value energy efficiency projects were not being funded. The Executive Steering Team agreed to consider a package of energy efficiency improvement projects outside the normal budgeting process. As a result, a capital energy budget of $4.2 million was established in 2011. Due to the success of this effort, energy funding has been included in base projections for capital budgets going forward. Additionally, the maintenance budget was increased from previous years and for the first time in 2011 was allocated to the energy team for their use in repairing steam leaks, adding insulation, and improving lighting along with other non-capital improvements.
