6 Industrial symbiosis of what? Industrial symbiosis engages traditionally separate industries in a collective approach to competitive advantage involving physical exchange of materials, energy, water and by-products Examples: Kalundborg, Biopark Terneuzen, Steiermark, Kokkola Industrial Park, Jurong Island Singapore Operating principles: self-organizing (bilateral or multilateral agreements), facilitated (NISP-process) or top-down managed and governed (e.g. landfill sites as eco-industrial parks) 6

7 What is Industrial Symbiosis? Not only about the material streams International Working Conference on Applied Industrial Symbiosis 2012 Industrial symbiosis is a systems approach to a more sustainable and integrated industrial system which identifies business opportunities that leverage underutilised resources (materials, energy, water, capacity, expertise, assets etc.).

19 How it works Really simple principle: making matches What do you HAVE? Unwanted resources What do you WANT? Resources you can use / process MATCHES are made + = Writes stuff you HAVE or WANT on the slips provided Slips are circulated round each table and MATCHES are made

20 Your Resources I HAVE.. and I WANT Materials wood, plastics, food waste, WEEE, metals Expertise ISO 9000, ISO 14000, OSHAS 18001, best practice Capacity under-utilised equipment, lab facilities Logistics transport, warehouse facilities, land Water and Energy waste heat, borehole, process water

21 Industrial symbiosis is a platform for innovation and for sources of sustainable growth INCREASES REDUCES Jobs Sales Learning Profits Innovation New business Inward investment Knowledge transfer Utilisation of assets Use of Virgin resources Use of water Hazardous waste CO 2 emissions Transport Pollution Landfill Costs Risk Creates new business opportunities

27 Recognised by the European Commission The new Industrial Policy update launched recently included practical proposals for industrial symbiosis schemes across Europe...Industrial symbiosis will be one of our priorities in 2013 Commissioner Potočnik in a speech to the Business Europe Advisory Board and Support Group (October 2012) 27

28 Recognition from all sectors International Synergies NISP is accredited by the European Commission as an Exemplar of Eco-Innovation through its Environmental Technologies Action Plan British Expertise International Award for implementing the National Industrial Symbiosis Programme on a Global Scale International Synergies received the Environmental Excellence Award for Best Carbon Reduction Programme for NISP The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) declared Industrial Symbiosis an excellent example of systemic innovation vital for future green growth NISP has been highlighted as 1 of 20 Worldwide Green Game Changing Innovations in a report commissioned by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Worldwatch Institute Europe, Best Practice Business Sustainability and Innovation in Publication launched at European Parliament, June 2013 International Synergies has been chosen to organise a Public Private Partnership on industrial symbiosis for the Global Green Growth Forum (3GF) Copenhagen in October

29 Recognised by the European Commission Commissioner Potočnik in a speech in EURISA launch : Resource-efficient businesses need to become the norm (rather than the exception) and clean technologies, innovation and greater cooperation are the essential ingredients to achieve this. Industrial Symbiosis is a very practical demonstration of how implementing circular economy models can deliver both improved competitiveness, and reduced environmental impact at the same time. 29
