Presentation transcript:

Development and use of Environmental Performance Indicators Experiences in Norsk Leca Knut J. Vaage /1

Performance Indicators Background Development Results Further work /2

Performance Indicators - Background Ecoeffcient Leca products - development of environmental strategies - 1998-99 Project financed by public funding and Norsk Leca Three key elements LCA - environmental assessment of Leca products Alternative fuels for LWA production Strategic environmental product analysis The elements of the project were incorporated in a scenario analysis Key areas of environmental impact identified /3

Performance Indicators - Background Implementation of ISO 14001 in Norsk Leca Tools to measure improvement is of importance Invited to participate in NORDEPE project 1999-2000 as following company Indicators for strategic decision making /4

Performance Indicators - Development Intention : To develop indicators for Leca production, and to implement them as tools in the strategic decision process Environmental impact assessement - both from ecoefficiency project and ISO 14001 work 4 major impact areas identified Cause/action analysis applied /5

Performance Indicators - Development Impact on climate Emissions of gases -transport/production/construction Impact on landscape Clay pit operations and industrial facilities Material efficiency Consumption of raw materials, recycling Energy efficiency Production / product /6

Performance Indicators - Development Development of indicators lead by Johan Thoresen, Østfoldforskning 17 indicators developed within the 4 specified areas - both for internal and external stakeholders Evaluation by Norsk Leca 12 indicators considered to be applicable Further refining 4 indicators developed /7

Performance Indicators - Results Total energy consumption / gross turnover kWh / NOK Emissions / gross turnover kg CO2 / NOK Fossil energy / total energy consumption % ( on calorific basis) Substitution of virgin material in block production % (on volume basis) /8

Performance Indicators - Results Figures for 1998 and 1999 developed 1998 base year, adjustments made for inflation Experiences Collection of information - from both production and economical reporting systems Different degrees of accessability Common base for comparison - m3, tons /9

Performance Indicators - Results Experiences cont’ Integration into decision process Challenging task, but a key factor for success Further work Introduce the EPI concept to the company management and discuss the opportunities of using EPI in the budget process of 2001 Data collection for 2000 to be improved Evaluate EPI versus current external information in annual environmental reports /10
