  2. Definition of SustainabilityEnergy Conservation as part of Sustainability

  3. Defining Sustainability • “Sustainable development is a very simple idea. It is about ensuring a better quality of life for everyone, now and for generations to come.” • Department of the Environment, • Transport andthe Regions, • London, UK. ‘98 • World Business Council for Sustainable Development, and others have similar definitions

  4. Sustainability • Synergy between: • Economic Growth • SocialResponsibility • Environmental Protection • Energy Conservation supports all three

  5. History of Sustainability at P&G • P&G pioneered environmental reporting (1970’s) • Environmental Quality Policy; EQ Reporting (1992) • One of the first companies to form a “corporate sustainability dept” and publish a sustainability report (1999) • External recognition for our work on sustainability: • For the seventh consecutive year P&G has been ranked as sector leader in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index. • Have been on the FTSE4Good ever since the index was devised • Fortune Magazine ranked P&G as the #1 among household and personal product companies

  7. Environmental profile of operations goal for 2012:“Deliver an additional 10% reduction (per unit of production) in CO2emissions, energy consumption, water consumption, and disposed waste from P&G plants, leading to a total reduction over the decade of at least 40%”

  8. Energy Conservation examples:-Heat recovery in plant water effluent (2002)-Energy efficient designs in new processes-Applying industry best practices (ongoing) Energy audits Lighting Motors VFD’s Drying optimization Compressed air etc.

  9. Wisconsin operations example:-New Papermachine start up in 2007-Changed design to maximize energy efficiency-Saves over 20,000 metric tons/yr of CO2-19% more energy efficient than next most recent similar machine-Received Governor’s Award for Innovation in Pulp & Paper industry-New standard for our next Papermachine, and rebuilds

  10. Lessons learned…..-Excellent synergies in being energy efficient and eco-efficient-The power of committed energy teams-A supportive regulatory climate helps-Challenges continue
