Companies set increasingly ambitious emission reduction targets. Focusing on their own operations is a logical first step to transformation. This prompts many to aspire to net zero Scope 1 & 2 emissions before 2030. Standard energy audits do not adequately help companies reach this goal. Audits miss critical emission reduction levers, emerging technology, finance solutions and more.
To shift perspectives, companies need a different approach. This includes a shift from energy savings to emission reduction, ROI to TCO and individual measures to integrated solutions.
In this discussion, ENGIE Impact provides insight into clients’ path to Net Zero manufacturing sites and to showcase a real-world application, Henkel shares how one of their sites built a pathway to Net Zero. This process allowed them to reconcile between high sustainability ambitions and site constraints. Culminating in a strong business case to align all stakeholders – sustainability, site managers, investors and COOs. You will learn how to leverage an energy audit to:
Set realistic site-level emission reduction goals with careful cost impact trade-offs
Make fundamental technology & asset choices to future-proof the site
Ensure all operating constraints are captured and met
Optimize the renewal & retrofitting of existing assets and the deployment of new ones
Leverage innovative finance & contractual models to reduce CAPEX burden and risks
Manage the complex internal stakeholder environment on climate action
