Performance Indicators<br />
Every quarter, we review EHS performance indicators with our senior executives. We have done this for more<br />
than 15 years, and we continue today, because these indicators are critical for managing our business.<br />
Normalized Production Index. The following graphs show some of the key indicators that we use to manage EHS performance. For the past<br />
several years, we have reported <strong>Intel</strong>’s performance in both absolute terms and per unit of production for most of our environmental indicators: the<br />
Normalized Production Index (NPI). The NPI is derived directly from our worldwide silicon wafer production and is indexed to a reference or baseline<br />
year of 1999. (NPI = 100 for baseline year 1999.) With this direct correlation to <strong>Intel</strong>’s global manufacturing levels, the NPI enables more accurate<br />
year-to-year comparisons and easier analysis of overall environmental performance. The index also supports trending comparisons across semiconductor<br />
manufacturers using similar normalization methods.<br />

Total energy use increased 5% in 2005 due to the addition of new facilities;<br />
however, normalized energy decreased 15%. <strong>Intel</strong> continues to implement<br />
energy reduction projects and remains well ahead of our goal to reduce normalized<br />
energy consumption an average of 4% per year from 2002 through 2010.<br />
Due to our continued growth, absolute water use increased 9% in 2005, but<br />
was down 8% when normalized for production. We continue to implement comprehensive<br />
reuse, recycling and reduction programs, which have saved <strong>Intel</strong> more<br />
than 20 billion gallons of water since 1998. In 2005, we established an internal<br />
goal to reduce our normalized water usage below 2005 levels by 2010 through<br />
water conservation and recycling programs.<br />
