    Global Sector Review 19 March 2009 SR I a 0 ngle IEW AL V GLOB OPE A EUR FROM Green Buildings & Construction Energy efficiency: the best begins at home Q Cheapest, easiest fight vs. global warming begins at home Globally buildings are responsible for 40% of primary energy use and have the largest potential of any sector for greater energy efficiency and CO2 reduction. Energy use could be reduced up to 80% using a range of conventional technologies like more efficient insulation and windows or heating, cooling and Energy efficiency measures come at little or even a negative cost lighting systems. given the payback on initial investment and ensuing reinvestment as well as the positive economic and employment growth impacts. However, long lifetimes, slow replacement and corporate and stakeholder reticence on initial investment are all important barriers and obstacles. Q The global buildings sector is and is likely to continue to be hit hard by the recession and 2009e and 2010e will be significant challenges for companies in the sector. Reducing cost is thus key in the current economic crisis and building-related energy efficiency helps tackle a broad swathe of challenges including rising energy costs and fuel poverty, maintenance costs for business and ordinary households and long-term energy security. Q Regulation should drive renovation market Increasingly stringent regulations on buildings and energy efficiency, such as the 2009 recast of the EUs EPBD, should result in billions of new capital investments. Stimulus spending should have a positive effect. We have identified some 300-400 billion in global public spending for buildings and construction, the majority of which is efficiency-focused and which should bring forward a number of planned energy efficiency investments and prevent a worst case scenario in the sector, although uncertainties remain as to amounts and timing.

    Corning Incorporated: the Growth and Strategy Council Rebecca M

    08-056 Rev. April 15, 2009 Corning Incorporated: The Growth and Strategy Council Rebecca M. Henderson and Cate Reavis The Growth and Strategy Council provides a forum to challenge and be challenged which is essential in a company with very low attrition rates. It prevents us from becoming paralyzed by group think which can exist in a place where many of the people have a common history. —John Igel, Director, FTTx Program We are dealing with complex, difficult to measure portfolios. You have to have a leadership group which will invest time but also remain objective in order to make the hard decisions. —Mark Newhouse, Director, New Business Development It was early February 2008. Charlie Devins, the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of a specialty chemicals and materials company, was interrupted mid-sentence as the 5:00pm whistle announcing the end of the work day at Corning Incorporated broke the mid-winter tranquility of the small town of Corning, New York, population 10,300. The sounding of the whistle came at a timely point in the conversation Devins was having with Joe Miller, Corning’s CTO. Miller had been explaining that while tradition and history were important at Corning, it did not signify that it was a company set in its ways. On the contrary: Corning was a company that had repeatedly reinvented itself to become one of the world’s leading materials companies. It was not a history that the firm took lightly: in 2002 the worldwide telecommunications crash had cut Corning’s revenues from $6.3 billion in 2001 to $3.1 billion the following year.
