Montréal, Canada (October 12, 2008) – Quebecor World Oberlin has received an Energy Saver award from the U.S. Department of Energy for achieving more than 7.5% total energy savings and for completing the project on schedule. Quebecor World Oberlin accomplished these reductions in large part by replacing older, inefficient control technology with new stateof- the art equipment and in doing so, reduced natural gas consumption plant-wide by approximately 25%.

In 2008, the Industrial Technologies Program, part of the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, awarded 129 plants for making significant progress in implementing the energy savings opportunities identified through a Save Energy Now energy assessment.

"Quebecor World has been systematically replacing energy control technology across the North American network over the past few years and we are extremely pleased that the DOE has recognized these efforts by awarding our Oberlin, Ohio plant an Energy Saver award. Coupled with the Company's participation in USEPA's SmartWay Transport program, Quebecor World continues to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability and environmentally responsible management", stated David Blair, Senior Vice President, Operations, Technology and Continuous Improvement.
