Energy Conservation for a Competitive Advantage

Raytheon's enterprise-wide Energy Conservation for a Competitive Advantage program achieved higher levels of participation and exceeded all goals established in 2007. We curbed electricity consumption by approximately 10 percent adjusted for business growth, saving approximately $9 million or enough electricity to power some 10,000 homes for a year. Since 2002, Raytheon has reduced overall energy consumption 11.7 percent while revenues have risen 45 percent. Highlights in 2007 included:
