The U.S. manufacturing sector is responsible for billions of dollars’ worth of energy use every year, but manufacturers are stepping up to strengthen their manufacturing competitiveness through energy savings. L’Oréal USA and General Motors are both partners in the Department of Energy’s Better Plants program and are industry leaders. Both companies have demonstrated great success in understanding and managing how they use energy resulting in very energy efficient manufacturing operations. But there’s always more opportunities to save. Through SWAP, DOE asks: can the companies from two unique industries help each other discover new ways to save energy?

In Episode One of the Better Buildings Challenge SWAP 4 ( ), brought to you by the U.S. Department of Energy, watch the team from General Motors conduct an energy audit at L’Oréal USA’s North Little Rock plant where household beauty products are made. Follow along as the General Motors team learns about L’Oréal USA’s employee engagement, solar panels, and compressed air energy saving tactics.

The Better Buildings Challenge SWAP is a three episode web series () that documents two industry leaders at top of their game in energy conservation as their energy teams swap facilities to uncover energy savings at each other’s plant.

SWAP highlights the goal for DOE's Better Buildings Challenge, an initiative launched in 2011 to improve efficiency of American commercial, institutional, multifamily buildings and industrial plants by 20 percent or more over 10 years with leading CEOs and executives sharing ideas to help spur billions in new investments and energy savings in their facilities.
