FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Cleaner Production Quick-Scan “how to become clean and cost efficient” Prof. Maurice Jutz [email protected] FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Eco Efficiency What is eco-efficiency? • As defined by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), "eco-efficiency is achieved by the delivery of competitively priced goods and services that satisfy human needs and bring quality of life, while progressively reducing ecological impacts and resource intensity throughout the life-cycle to a level at least in line with the Earth’s estimated carrying capacity." In short, it is concerned with creating more value with less impact. © FHNW - 2007 2 FHBB © FHNW - 2007 Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Source: WBCSD: eco-eficiency learning module 3 FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC How to get there? • Cleaner Production • Clean Technologies Source: WBCSD: eco-eficiency learning module © FHNW - 2007 4 FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Cost of production: • • • • Material: Energy: Manpower: Capital: 43 % 1,8% 18 % 7% • External • Infrastructure in % of brutto production value: source: German Office for Statistics, 2006, FAZ, 10,2008 © FHNW - 2007 5 FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Material-efficiency: potential for savings 100‘000‘000‘000.- Euro per year in Germany Source: FAZ, 2008, German Ministry of Economy © FHNW - 2007 6 FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Material Efficiency • • • • natural resources are conserved reducing the demand for raw materials will reduce the impacts of raw material extraction, including both environmental and social impacts energy will be conserved and greenhouse gas emissions reduced increasing material efficiency will reduce the amount of waste – material- and energy flows © FHNW - 2007 7 FHBB © FHNW - 2007 Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC 8 FHBB Institute for Ecopreneurship IEC Stone age has not been succeeded by the age of bronze because there was a lack of stones, but because more efficient solutions have been developed by the users.

CP is the continuous application of an integrated, preventive strategy to processes, products and services to increase efficiency and reduce risks to humans and the environment.
