Cinergy to Help Procter & Gamble Save on Annual Energy Costs; P&G Plants to Benefit From Energy Efficiency Measures.

CINCINNATI -- Cinergy Solutions, an affiliate of Cinergy Corp. (NYSE:CIN), is to implement new energy efficiency measures for The Procter & Gamble Co. (P&G) that have the potential to deliver savings of over $1 million for the consumer products giant. This strengthens the long-term relationship Cinergy Solutions has enjoyed with P&G, which has already produced savings in excess of $380,000.

Cinergy Solutions will implement projects at P&G plants on the east and west coasts. The initiative covers four key areas:

--Retrofitting lighting systems will deliver savings of more than $900,000 annually:

--Retrofitting P&G's existing compressed air system will reduce the on-line time for the compressor, avoid potential air interruptions, and save more than $100,000 annually.

--Retrofitting the existing mill water waste stream will recover heat from the waste water to preheat incoming water used by the existing Reverse Osmosis (RO) system. This will deliver annual savings of $230,000.

--Retrofitting the existing turbine inlet filter at the same plant will save $250,000 annually and improve the gas turbine performance to increase on-peak output, and reduce compressor deterioration and off-peak fuel consumption.

"We are very impressed with P&G's dedication to the environment - their values and leadership reflect our own commitment to sustainability and an energy efficient economy," said Steve Harkness, President of Cinergy Solutions. "We have worked extensively with P&G to understand their needs, design solutions to accomplish their goals, and ensure they are able to meet their production schedule."

"Procter & Gamble is continually striving to improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact," said Paul Jackson, Associate Director - Global Business Services, Purchases, P&G. "Cinergy Solutions worked with us to identify grants and rebates that provided funding from sources such as California's Summer Lighting Energy Efficiency Program - this was critical in helping us achieve these additional efficiencies."
