Energy Efficiency
Since 2015, we’ve invested more than $1.5 billion, and years of hard work and innovation, in energy efficiency projects across Koch’s U.S. facilities. Over the last five years we’ve saved enough energy to power more than 360,000 households for an entire year. Across our operations, we continually work to improve energy efficiency and develop innovative technologies, which will further reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As an active partner and leader in the industry, we were recognized as ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year in 2017, 2021 and 2022.
Five Koch facilities across four diverse industries have earned EPA’s ENERGY STAR® certification in just 12 months. The awards certify that the facilities performed in the top 25% for energy efficiency within their industries — refining, fertilizer, pulp and flat glass — and meet strict energy efficiency performance levels set by the EPA.
