Cisco estimates the resulting impact of this initiative to be a 5000 MWh reduction in energy use per year, which equates to a reduction of 3000 tonnes of
CO2 emissions, a $12 million savings in the first year, and a $6 million annual savings in subsequent years. In FY09, 86 percent of Cisco printed circuit boards were produced without washing, and we have committed to completely eliminating water washing of printed circuit boards by early FY10.
Cisco estimates that the elimination of water wash for this remaining 14 percent of our circuit boards will save 20 million gallons of water and over $1 million
