Since 2004 ExxonMobil has invested more than
$1.5 billion to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
improve energy efficiency.
Through our Global Energy Management System and
investments in cogeneration, the simultaneous production
of electricity and steam, we continue to make our
operations more efficient, while at the same time reducing
greenhouse gas emissions.
We have developed technologies such as a new
lithium-ion battery separator film for use in hybrid and
electric vehicles, as well as advanced engine oils,
lightweight plastics, and tire materials that are already
helping improve vehicle fuel economy.
ExxonMobil is also working with vehicle and engine manufacturers on advanced engines that could improve fuel
economy by up to 30 percent, investing in a technology for separating CO2 from natural gas to enable carbon capture
and storage, and supporting breakthrough research into ways to make alternative energy sources like solar and
biofuels more available and affordable.
Improving energy efficiency and minimizing environmental impacts
Balancing the need for energy and economic growth while addressing environmental risks
is a key challenge for society. Energy has to be used in the most efficient way to meet the
needs of a growing world, but also to minimize the impact on the environment.

(1) Capacity in which ExxonMobil has an interest.
Our commitment to environmental responsibility starts with high
standards for environmental management. Using an in-depth
scientific understanding of the environmental impact of our activities,
we work to improve energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas
emissions, and protect environmentally sensitive areas where
we operate.
We continue to improve our environmental performance. In 2008
ExxonMobil achieved zero spills from company-operated and long-
term chartered marine vessels. Every day our employees strive to
improve our operating performance and to reduce incidents with
environmental impact to zero.
