6. Sustainable Development Report
Managing Energy Efficiency
After a three year analysis period 140 production units and buildings have been x-rayed at the end of 2010 using the
Bayer Climate Check. The results will be transformed into energy savings and emission reductions using so called
energy management systems. A systematic and structured approach lifting the emission reduction potentials will
be guaranteed by these systems. The energy management systems have been adapted to specific Bayer sub-group
production and work processes.
STRUCTese™ (Structured Efficiency System for Energy) is a management system developed by Bayer Material Science
together with Bayer Technology Services and Bayer Business Services with the aim of sustainable optimizing energy
efficiency. It will build on the results of the Bayer Climate Check and help the company to ensure that the identified
potential for reducing greenhouse gas emissions is exploited to the full. By the end of 2012, it is expected that 60
plants around the world will be employing this new management tool, with which the company wants to set
standards for industry in general. The system had already been introduced at 30 plants by December 2010, leading to
cuts in primary energy consumption of 550,000 megawatt hours and the avoidance of 135,000 metric tons of co2
emissions.

Report for Large North American Grocery Retailers -

26. Sainsbury's toilet roll tuck squeezes
out carbon savings
8 May 2012, source edie newsroom
Sainsbury's is shrinking the volume of its own-brand toilet rolls - a
packaging move which it claims will take 500 lorries off the road
each year.
The retailer is the first company reduce the diameter of the inner
cardboard tube on every roll by 12mm, cutting the number of
delivery lorries required by the equivalent of 140,000kg of CO2.
However it was quick to allay fears that consumers might be
short-changed by the move. On-pack information will reassure
customers that each roll contains the same number of sheets and
the same quality.
"Our customers will still get the same number of sheets, but by
shrinking the tube, we are able to reduce the overall package size,
meaning less lorries are needed on the road to deliver the
products to our stores," said Fiona Miall, toilet roll buyer for
Sainsbury's.
She added that the relatively small packaging development would
result in significant carbon savings. As part of its 20 by 20
Sustainability Plan, the retailer has pledged to reduce its own
packaging by half compared to 2005 levels.
New packaging designs on Sainsbury's own brand products have
generated an 11% reduction in the past two years. The new smaller
rolls are set to arrive in Sainsbury's distribution depots this week
and will hit stores across the country shortly afterwards.
27. Kraft Cuts Packaging with Lifecycle

• Kraft Foods cut the amount of

salad dressing by 60 percent
using a lifecycle analysis system, the
company has announced.
• Kraft’s LCA centers around its Eco-
Calculator, a proprietary tool that
figures the percentage of post-
consumer recycled material in a
given package design, along with
the amount of energy and carbon
dioxide emissions required to create
the package. Based on data from
the EPA, the Department of Energy
and packaging industry groups, the
tool also tells packaging designers
how efficiently they’re using
materials and….
28. Sunny Delight CNG Fleet to Cut
400,000 Gallons of Diesel
• Sunny Delight Beverages has put into service a fleet of
three compressed natural gas vehicles for distribution in
southern California, in markets including Los Angeles, Mira
Loma, Carson and Riverside.
• The move is expected to cut about 400,000 gallons of
diesel fuel in 2012, and to cut well-to-wheel
greenhouse gas by 23 percent versus diesel-
powered engines.
• Transportation management and logistics provider
Transplace said that it executed a transportation plan that
focused on keeping costs down for the beverage
manufacturer. The companies have a five-year
arrangement. Transplace manages the carriers and the
fueling options within the network, and Glacier
Transportation deployed the fleet.
• A number of companies are testing a transition to CNG
fleets. In January, AT&T ordered 1,200 Chevrolet Express
CNG cargo vans for delivery to its service centers
nationwide, in General Motors’ largest ever order of CNG
vehicles. Refuse collection firm Waste Management
announced a pilot program across four states to introduce
natural-gas powered Rotopress waste collection trailers.
• Also, Veolia ES Solid Waste revved up Indiana’s first fleet of
CNG powered refuse trucks in April.
29. Iron Mountain Looks to Solar PV; Johns
Hopkins Brings 818kW Online
• Information management company Iron Mountain says it will install
solar PV systems on the roofs of eight document storage facilities in
Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Jersey – the first stage of a review
of rooftop solar generation potential across its 1,000 global facilities.
• The company said the panels are part of a strategy for fixing long-term
utility rates while meeting environmental goals.
• The new panels are expected to produce more than 5.2 million kWh
of energy in their first year of operation and offset nearly
7 million pounds of carbon dioxide each year. Iron Mountain
has made 20-year fixed rate purchase power agreements with
SunEdison, in which the solar power services provider will finance, build
and maintain the installations at each site, while Iron Mountain will
purchase the energy generated.
• In other solar developments, Johns Hopkins University has brought
online an 818 kW solar PV system on seven buildings on three of its
campuses in Baltimore, in one of the largest university rooftop solar
arrays in the country and the largest in the city, energy partners Eastlight
Renewable Ventures and RGS Energy said. The companies estimate that
the new systems will generate 950,925 kWh of power in the
first year and prevent over 35 million pounds of carbon
dioxide emissions over the life of the system.
• Eastlight developed the project and owns the systems. RGS Energy
planned, engineered and installed the systems. Financing is through a
long-term power purchase agreement that required no up-front capital
from the university, Eastlight said.
