GE supports energy efficient buildings

GE

 In 2010, GE achieved a 33 percent improvement in its own energy intensity, a 24 percent reduction in its GHG emissions (both from a 2004 baseline) and 22 percent improvement in its water re-use (from a 2006 baseline). In 2010, GE set new, more aggressive targets for 2015:  A 50 percent energy intensity improvement, 25 percent GHG emissions reduction, and a 25 percent water reduction, from the same baselines across more than 105 million square feet. 

GE Capital Americas  (GECA) will shape a credit strike zone and profitability model for commercial building energy efficiency projects that will lead to financeable opportunities of $50MM+.  GECA will use its best efforts to create financial products to meet market needs through all steps of the supply chain from manufacturers, to dealers to end users.  GECA foresees the ability to help financing energy-saving technologies in areas such as lighting and HVAC across multiple markets – including office, retail and manufacturing.
