In today’s competitive marketplace, leading organizations recognize that in order to succeed, sustainability must become an essential part of their business strategy. Having a strategic plan for sustainability will not only improve your environmental performance, but can lower your costs and drive efficiency and innovation across the enterprise.

KPPC, a state-supported, non-profit resource center, offers Kentucky businesses and organizations a unique opportunity to take advantage of engineering services at very low, or no cost.

KPPC Can Help Your Business With:

• Pollution Prevention – P2 / Source Reduction Assessments
  Pollution Prevention (P2) means reducing or eliminating waste at the source by modifying production processes, promoting the use of non-toxic or less-toxic substances, implementing conservation techniques and re-using materials rather than putting them into the waste stream.

• Energy Efficiency – E2 / Systematic Approach
  Energy Efficiency (E2) is the organized and systematic coordination and management of the procurement, conversion, distribution and use of energy. The term describes actions taken to manage the use and cost of energy and to maximize Energy Efficiency.

• Sustainable Manufacturing / Improved Environmental Performance
  Drive efficiency, reduce costs, and spur innovation by integrating sustainability into day to day manufacturing operations and new product development from a life cycle perspective.
