Encouraging Engineering for Goals of Social and Environmental Justice Chris Schairbaum Director of Energy Technology Strategy Texas Instruments Engineering Towards a More Just and Sustainable World APPE Mini-Conference March 7, 2010 Chris Schairbaum 1

What would you rather die from? 1) Climate change? 2) Oil wars? 3) Nuclear holocaust? The right answer – often left out – is 4) None of the above Let’s use energy in a way that saves money, because that will solve the climate, oil and proliferation problems – not at a cost, but at a profit… Credit: Amory Lovins Chris Schairbaum 2

It uses all resources efficiently in both an environmental and economic sense. 6 Chris Schairbaum

TI’s Path to Sustainability • Resource Conservation – Recycling: TI has decades of experience in recycling, currently recycling almost 90 percent of its non-industrial waste worldwide – Water Reuse: Extensive water reuse and reclamation practices are in place – about 1. 5 billion gallons annually – Product Stewardship: TI produced its first lead-free semiconductor component in 1989. More than 30 billion lead-free TI components are in products worldwide – Green Buildings: Substantial annual budget for new and retrofitted buildings across the globe. – Employee Trip Reduction: This program keeps hundreds of cars off the road everyday 7 Chris Schairbaum

TI’s Big Sustainability Leap: RFAB • Strategy Team - Fabscape – 5 strategy teams were formed in advance of project – The 5 th team – focused on sustainability only – Generated early white papers on a number of ideas • Tour (Westbrook House – www. enerjazz. com/house) – Invited 3 VP’s to tour active/passive solar home – Low utility bills for “normal” house spurred interest • Design Workshop – Teamed up with Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) – Held 3 -day design charrette to brainstorm ideas – Generated 15 “Big Honkin’ Ideas” to carry forward along with a large list of other good ideas – Made a first pass at LEED score sheet 10 Chris Schairbaum

RFAB: Journey toward Sustainability 11 Chris Schairbaum

Cost/Benefit • We invested less than 1 percent of the project cost (less than $1. 5 million) in LEED-related items: • Predominately efficiency improvements that we would have considered regardless of LEED • Overall project cost was 30 percent less than our previous 300 mm fab • In the first full year, we should save $1 million in operating costs • At full build out, we will save more than $4 million per year: • 20 percent energy reduction • 40 percent water-use reduction • 50 percent emissions reduction • LEED Gold Certified Office and Fab • www. ti. com/rfab 12 Chris Schairbaum

The Negawatt (n) - a measure of energy efficiency; a unit in watts of energy saved Solar and wind may be sexy. . . but efficiency yields the best financial and environmental benefits Chris Schairbaum 13

Nega. Watts: The Argument for Efficiency 65% of all energy created is lost in the conversion & distribution process… this is why energy conservation is so important => 1 k. Wh saved is 3. 3 k. Wh of energy source never consumed 14 Chris Schairbaum

A Corporate Example Make It In 2007, an American Fortune 100 Company: • Installed 1. 6 MW of solar power • Costing $10 M in gross capital ($3 M Net) • Generating 2, 000 MWh / year • Saving $0. 2 Million / year • Providing a > 10% ROI Use It In 2007, Texas Instruments: • Implemented efficiency programs • Costing $1. 2 M in gross capital • (Generating) 14, 717 MWh / year • Saving $1. 5 Million / year • Providing a > 100% ROI Alternative energy ROI’s are improving dramatically, while Efficiency ROI’s are dramatic already 15 Chris Schairbaum

Capitalism => Natural Capitalism Today we have a temporary aberration called “industrial capitalism” which is inadvertently liquidating its two most important sources of capital… the natural world and properly functioning societies. No sensible capitalist would do that. – Amory Lovins "The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.

Revolutionary Idea First Industrial Revolution: Next Industrial Revolution: People are scarce and nature is abundant – increase labor productivity People are abundant and nature is scarce – increase resource productivity Natural Capitalism: Creating the Next Industrial Revolution by Paul Hawken, L.
