The Quiet Giant: Energy Efficiency Ready to Roar!
Presentation Overview
About the Alliance
A Quiet History of Huge Success
Game Changers: Setting the Stage for the Decade of Energy Efficiency
Ready to Roar: Energy Efficiency as the “First Fuel”
What is the Alliance to Save Energy?

A Quiet History of Success
Game Changers: Global Imperatives… Climate Change: Energy use directly linked to GHG emissions..the U.S. example:
Security:Unchecked growth in energy demand can:• Accelerate fossil fuel depletion• Increase our reliance on foreign
sources of energy
Economy:• Energy waste comes at high costs:
“Business as usual” energy use will waste more than $1.2 trillion in the U.S. between now and 2020 in the U.S. alone – and this does not include transportation energy consumption!
Game Changers: Understanding the Enormous Potential for Savings……
Source: McKinsey Global Institute
Game Changers: Leadership by ExampleThrough energy efficiency alone, Walmart...- ...is saving 250 million kwh/year in the U.S. (enough to power 23,000 homes)- …has reduced energy load by approximately 15-20%
Learning Resulted in New Sustainability Goals:- Reduce GHG emissions at existing stores 20% by 2012- Long-term: 100% powered by renewable energy- Zero-waste operations- Sustainable product selection- Sustainability/efficiency criteria for supplies and vendors around the world
EE technologies are helping Walmart get there NOW:- Daylighting- Efficient HVAC- White Roofs
- Lighting Retrofits- Fuel efficient vehicles…and more!
Game Changers: Leadership by Example
Equivalent to the electricity needed to power all the residential homes in California for one year!
Since 1994:Energy intensity reduced by
22% (Btu/pound of product)1,600 trillion Btu saved Prevented 86 million metric
tons of CO2 from entering atmosphere
$5 billion in energy savings achieved

Game Changers:Increasing Utility Sector Investment
Game Changers: Federal InvestmentStimulus: $65B Related to Energy Efficiency
Funding in Millions of US Dollars
Game Changers: Global Investment
EE: THE BEST INVESTMENT ??
Global revenues from climate-related businesses rose by 75 percent in 2008 to $530 billion
Climate-related business revenue could exceed $2 trillion by 2020
Energy efficiency recorded the highest investment return at 30%
GOVERNMENTS AROUND THE WORLD SEEM TO THINK SO…
Energy efficiency will receive $184 billion (53%) of the $350 billion in global green stimulus funds
