Johnson Controls Provides Successful Energy Efficiency Projects

    WASHINGTON, May 15 President Bush's National Energy Policy
will be unveiled on May 17.  In his weekend radio address, the president
noted, "Over the long term, the most effective way to conserve energy is by
using energy more efficiently."

    Johnson Controls, Inc. , one of the nation's largest providers
of energy efficiency services, currently is using its building systems
knowledge and technology to help manufacturers, hospitals, schools,
governments and retail sites become more energy efficient and save millions of
dollars in energy costs.  In addition, these sites are improving employee
productivity and helping the environment -- all by using their buildings'
energy wisely, frequently with no up-front costs.

working to conserve energy.  Please contact Rebecca Alberte at 414-524-4017 to
interview Johnson Controls experts who can talk about:

    -- Examples of facilities such as veterans hospitals, high-tech labs,
       office buildings and schools across the nation that already are
       reducing energy use by replacing old equipment with new building
       systems -- and accruing other benefits.

    -- Cutting edge technology that helps facilities measure and monitor their
       energy usage so they can better manage it during power supply
       uncertainty.

    -- Energy effectiveness:  an advanced combination of technology and
       knowledge involved in developing sustainable buildings.

    -- Renewable energy strategies at federal facilities, including geothermal
       and solar hot water systems.

    According to the U.S. Department of Energy, non-residential buildings
(commercial and industrial) consume 30 to 40 percent of all energy, and
60 percent of all electricity. It's estimated that the existing stock of
4.5 million commercial buildings (58 billion sq. ft.) alone use 20 to 40
percent more energy than necessary -- largely because of outdated or
inefficient infrastructure.

    Find out how Johnson Controls is using its expertise to help many
businesses and organizations significantly reduce that amount.
