The rapid surge in energy costs has greatly increased the cost of doing business.  Manufacturers must focus on reducing energy costs to remain competitive.  An excellent way to sustain this focus is for manufacturers to rethink, enhance, and leverage their existing Collaborative Production Systems (Automation & Control, Operations Management, and Digital Manufacturing).  Manufacturers can utilize Collaborative Production Systems to significantly reduce energy costs by selecting energy efficient controls components, optimally consuming energy based on actual production requirements, establishing energy efficient asset designs over asset lifecycles, providing visibility to energy usage, and automatically generating alarms when energy waste is detected.  Reducing environmental impact of business activities needs to be the goal of all companies.
