6Climate Change Programs
- Intel CO2 emissions impact
- Energy
- Electricity and natural gas to power factories,
offices - Perfluorocompounds (PFCs)
- Materials used in SC manufacturing
- Long atmospheric lifetime, high global
- warming potential (GWP)
- Product energy use
- Intel chips operating in computers, servers, etc.
- Indirect impacts
- Commute, logistics, travel
7Climate Change Program - PFCs
- Early 1990s PFCs identified as long lived, high
GWP gases - 1996 U.S. Semiconductor Industry Association
(SIA) signs PFC MOU with U.S. EPA - First industry to voluntarily limit GW emissions
- Endeavor to reduce normalized PFC emissions
from 95 levels - 1998 World Semiconductor Council agreement
signed among SIA sister organizations in Europe
Asia - Reduce PFCs to 10 below 1995 levels by 2010
- WSC working group currently discussing post 2010
plans

9Energy Conservation Program
- Energy use reduction goal established in 2003
- Reduce normalized energy consumption 4/yr from
02 - 10 - Average reduction through 2006 5/yr.
- 2-3M per year earmarked for dedicated
conservation fund - Highly efficient pumps, motors, lighting
- Variable frequency drives
- Improved manufacturing tool efficiency
- Has produced gt30M in annual savings
