Forest Products Best Practices

The Forest Products industry is the fourth-largest user of fossil energy in the U.S. manufacturing sector; 84% of its production costs are spent on steam systems.

OIT's BestPractices team is working with the Forest Products Industry to identify opportunities to use energy more efficiently through new technology implementation, plant assessments, and system improvements

For more information on how you can lower your energy costs, find the document or software that best suits your needs from the list below. If you are interested in participating in BestPractices activities, visit our How to Get Involved page for more information.
