Recorded on April 11, 2019
Duration: 51 minutes
This webinar presents a tool developed by the Kentucky Pollution Prevention Center (KPPC), specifically for the beverage industry, to calculate energy use ratio (energy use per production unit) and Scope 2 GHG emissions per production unit. An example using actual data results from a distillery is presented.
The majority of the webinar provides an overview of sustainable value stream mapping (Sus-VSM). Sus-VSM is an approach to overlay sustainability data on the value stream of a business to visualize and identify opportunities for improvement in sustainability performance and cost savings.
In 2019 the Kentucky Sustainable Spirits Initiative is focused on incorporating energy data. Then in 2020 the focus will be on water use, materials and waste. Sus-VSM examples are presented to highlight the application of the sustainable value stream mapping process.
Learning objectives:
– Understand how to use the EUR/GHG calculator
– Understand how to develop a sustainable value stream map with energy data
