The Circular Economy Institute

Accelerating the Transition to a Circular Economy

Today, manufacturing accounts for 25% of U.S. energy consumption at a cost of $150 billion. Industry is also the third largest contributor to U.S. greenhouse gas emissions after transportation and electricity at 23%. Factor in the electricity consumed by the industrial sector, and industry becomes the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in the nation at 30%.

Our experts, together with our partners, are working to reduce those amounts.
In fact, reducing embodied energy and decreasing emissions is in our name: REMADE.
