What does “Green Busines” mean for Enterprises and private sector organisations?

•

Green Markets:

General need for more efficient and • • • sustainable products and services Increasing awareness of Consumers Green public procurement Regulations and standards • •

Green Enterprises:

Improve environmental performance Reduce materials intensity, energy and material • • costs (Germany: > 40 % of production costs) Improve energy and resource efficiency

Reduce

waste, emissions and

costs!

Business organisations = providers of information and services!

Profitable Environmental Management (PREMA)

Input Process Output

desired final product Raw material Energy Water

generation of NPO + + Disposal Costs of NPO

Non-product output (NPO) 10-30% of total cost of production

Total NPO-costs .

Non-Product Output Concept : NPO = All material, energy and water which is used in the production process but does not end up in the final product © GTZ-PREMAnet, 2008

Example: CHINA – application of mjethodology „Profitable Environmental Management“ (PREMA) Approach



PREMA Training of 3 Trainers, 42 Consultants, 128 representatives of companies

 

Implementation of 11 training programs in 5 cities Implementation of 840 PREMA measures in more than 60 companies Results

 

64 companies, implementation of more than 800 individual measures Investment of approx. 6,5 million € in plants that led to annual net saving of approx. 13,5 million € (average payback period: 5,2 months)



Altogether, up to 30% of energy, 20% of water and 10% of materials have been saved

C O N C L U S I O N S

Tackling global challenges like climate change, growing populations and increasing resource consumption require enormous efforts and changes towards a Green Economy. Markets are started becoming increasingly green; change can already be noticed in many segments.

Enterprises are facing huge challenges and opportunities. They should prepare as early as possible in order to improve resource efficiency and identify green market chances.

Private sector = part of the solution!

Business organisations should support enterprises by providing information and facilitating training and other services.
