In 1997, the survey focused on mechanical insulation, and the MBI segment was added in 2013. The survey is sponsored by the Foundation and its objective is to provide valuable data regarding market size and growth rates for the U.S. commercial and industrial mechanical and laminated MBI markets.<\/p>\n<p>The survey methodology has been consistent, which provides confidence in comparing year\u2011over\u2011year results. The survey goes to NIA\u2019s Associate members, who are manufacturers of insulation products and\/or insulation accessories. Conducted by an independent third party, the survey asks those members to provide annual revenue for their respective mechanical insulation and MBI products.

With building operations accounting for approximately 30 percent of annual greenhouse gas emissions in the United States, installing air sealing and insulation products is the first, best step toward decarbonizing our built environment.<\/p>\n<p>A coalition of national insulation trade associations commissioned ICF, an international consulting firm with expertise in the energy and energy efficiency sector, to undertake an analysis based on a simple proposition: how much can we reduce U.S greenhouse gas emissions by investing in easily achievable insulation improvements to existing single-family homes, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities. As a result of the study, we learned the opportunity associated with simple insulation measures is immense and can significantly contribute to lowering emissions attributed to buildings. The impact is the equivalent of increasing current wind production by 135 percent or offsetting the emissions associated with forty percent of all natural gas-fired generation in the United States.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Findings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Residential Buildings<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Large savings potential for existing homes. <\/strong>ICF estimates that energy savings ranging from 10 to 45 percent can be achieved in existing homes that are air sealed and have insulation added in the ceiling and floors (and walls in very limited circumstances) to levels prescribed by the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Expected long-term carbon reductions.<\/strong> Nationally, this retrofit activity could yield roughly 10 billion tons of carbon emissions over a fifty-year period \u2013 the minimum useful life of building insulation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Commercial Buildings<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Savings seen in all commercial building types. <\/strong>ICF analyzed a range of commercial buildings, including schools, small to midsize office buildings, midrise apartments, and stand-alone retail, applying customary ASHRAE 90.1-2019-compliant roof insulation upgrades and pipe insulation improvement While savings vary by building type, the national average for whole building energy savings is approximately 5 percent, with nearly 70 percent of those savings resulting from decreased natural gas usage, which would also reduce GHG emissions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Significant opportunity in education subsector.<\/strong> Nationally, primary schools would reduce annual energy use by an average of nearly 9 percent by incorporating these insulation improvements, while secondary schools would average energy savings of more than 7 percent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Industrial Facilities<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Exceptionally short payback periods. <\/strong>ICF found that making pipe and mechanical insulation improvements to industrial facilities in eight major industrial sectors (i.e., chemical, food, paper, plastic, etc.) would save the industrial sector more than $126 billion in energy costs based on an average capital cost of $3.77 billion. The average payback on this investment is only about one year. For many industrial sectors, the payback is as little as six months. This energy reduction translates into carbon emissions prevented.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Insulation aids in transition to electrification.<\/strong> Energy savings from insulation upgrades can reduce natural gas use by 118 billion therms across the U.S. industrial sector and help reduce demand on the electric grid as electrification technologies roll out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Making common sense insulation improvements to buildings, facilities, and plants yields enormous energy cost savings to consumers and drives tremendous greenhouse gas emission reductions. The emission reduction potential resulting from buildings, facilities, and plants considered in this study would drive annual CO<sub>2<\/sub> equivalent emission reductions of nearly 282 million tons and lifetime CO<sub>2<\/sub>E emission reductions of more than 11.5 billion tons. Perhaps most importantly, insulation improvements can be implemented immediately with off-the-shelf technology, while allowing longer-term investments and electrification technologies to be planned and deployed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-87-3\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-87-3-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-87-3-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"6\" ><div class=\"image-ruled panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-87-3-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1468 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2023\/08\/Foundation-Logo-Final-300x250.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2023\/08\/Foundation-Logo-Final-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2023\/08\/Foundation-Logo-Final-768x640.jpg 768w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2023\/08\/Foundation-Logo-Final.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-87-3-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-87-3-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"7\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"widget-title\">MI Energy &amp; Carbon Reduction Impact Study<\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><strong>MI Energy &amp; Carbon Reduction Impact Study<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Mechanical Insulation Industry has long talked about the impact mechanical insulation can have on energy savings and the reduction of carbon emissions.

10-year estimate);<\/p>\n<p>(3) estimated impact for the next 5-10 years and<\/p>\n<p>(4) estimated missing and\/or damaged insulation for the past 5 - 10 years and forecast of the next 5-10 years.<\/p>\n<p>This survey will be conducted in Q3 2022 by a third party, Industry Insights, and results and analysis will be available in Q4.<\/p>\n<p>Click here to access the final report.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-87-4\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-87-4-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-87-4-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"8\" ><div class=\"image-ruled panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-87-4-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1278 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020-232x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020-1187x1536.jpg 1187w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020-1583x2048.jpg 1583w, https:\/\/insulation.org\/foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2022\/08\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 232px) 100vw, 232px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-87-4-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-87-4-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"9\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"widget-title\">Contributions of Insulation to the U.S. Economy  <\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><strong>Contributions of Insulation to the U.S. Economy <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Foundation contributed information to the commercial, industrial, and mechanical segments of the updated American Chemistry Council Insulation Industry Report, Contributions of Insulation to the U.S. Economy in 2020, published by the Economic and Statistics Department of the American Chemistry Council.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/insulation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Contributions-of-Insulation-to-U-S-2020.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a> to access the final report.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Study on Insulation\u2019s Positive Impact on Energy Efficiency &amp;
