1 Social and Environmental problems from a local and global perspective How to choose key social and environmental problems which my organisation should respond to
2 In other words. WHERE DO WE START?
3 Our Mission as Business Community Maximise Production under constraint
4 Constraints are offsprings of risks (and forefathers of liabilities) A number of risks have converged to awaken us Energy Cost Pressure Sustainability and Legislation Security Manage Energy We can t control these risks But we can control how much energy we use
5 What are your broad strategies to fulfill your energy needs?
6 Five Strategies to Fulfillment of Energy Needs 1. Do nothing 2. Remix (develop non-emitting alternatives and switch off emitting) 3. Technology play on fossil fuels 4. Offsets carbon projects 5. Efficiency
7 What are the key ingredients of Energy Management?
8 DuPont s view of Sustainable Operations Sustainable Operational Excellence Workplace Safety Operations Risks Management Capital Effectiveness Environmental Management Asset Productivity Operating culture
9 DuPont s view of Sustainable Culture Workplace Safety Operations Risks Management Sustainable Operational Excellence Capital Effectiveness Sustainability Management Processes and Actions (Capabilities) Asset Productivity Structure (Organization) Leadership (Strategy, Goals) The System is rooted in PEOPLE and CORPORATE CORE VALUES and built on the following key elements: Strong Leadership Appropriate Organizational Structure Effective Management Systems Focused Processes and Actions The principles, and the system for realizing them, form the best practice reference model against which we implement change
10 Management processes that define, measure and drive systematic improvement. Leadership Vision & Policy Goals and metrics Standards and Procedures EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT Performance Mgmt & Line Accountability Technicall resources and Networks Integrated Organisation & Planning LOCAL OPERATING UNITS/PROJECTS Motivation, and Awareness activities Performance Trends & Investigation System and Management Audits Communication of procedures and setting expectations Learning from incidents and Off track performance PEOPLE BEHAVIOURS Training and Development Monitoring, Observations and Project reviews
11 Our 2015 Sustainability Goals Reducing Environmental Footprint Greenhouse Gas Emissions Water Conservation Fleet Fuel Efficiency Air Carcinogens Independent Verification of Site Programs Serving the Marketplace Environmentally Smart Market Opportunities from R&D Efforts Products that help Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions Revenues from Non-Depletable Resources Products that help Protect People
12 Real World Examples Turning Waste into Revenue Challenge Global objective: all DuPont Corian plants achieve zero waste to landfill by Solution Buffalo, NY, plant instituted programs to reuse, reduce and recycle Corian byproducts: In 2007, discovery of creative way to reuse material to create a new offering, the Terra Collection Product line that contributes to LEED credits. Donation of slightly off-color Corian sheets (bound for the landfill) for construction of interactive children s hospital playrooms. Results $4 million in sales of Terra Collection in 2008 with continued growth $7 million/year cost savings to the business Achieved with zero capital investment
13 Real World Examples Improving Energy Efficiency Challenge Sabine River Works, which consumes 15% of the energy used by DuPont, wanted to reduce the site s energy use, consistent with the company s long-term energy goals. Solution Implemented over 55 projects, many utilizing Six Sigma methodology. Improved the reliability of steam supply to a key process area, which reduced wasteful forced outages Improved key process equipment, including a large steam turbine - Corrected metering problems with purchased energy - Made repairs and improvements to steam traps Results Reduced energy consumption by 20% from a 2000 baseline (Equivalent of heating 257,000 homes for one year) $100 million cost savings over 5 years
14 Real World Examples Reducing Energy Demand and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Challenge The Solae Ieper plant in Belgium, which produces isolated soy protein (ISP) through a highly energy-intensive process, faced rising energy prices. Solution Included 3 independent projects: Installation of cogeneration biogas engine New process for soy fiber processing - Reduces the energy requirement for the drying process - Results in lower carbon emission from the dryer s natural gas burner Contracted for wind-generated electricity from a nearby wind farm Results 15% reduction in annual CO 2 emissions $2.9 million annual savings
15 Growth and Energy Consumption Decoupled Total Energy Consumption, Trillion Btu Global Energy Use in Trillion Btu, Flat Energy Use Goal Rest of Company Top Plants Top 20 Plants Energy use: - 21% since 1990 Production: + 47%, $5 Billion energy costs avoided Year
16 Business Case: Energy DuPont DuPont s goal is Sustainable Growth We spend $1Billion+ annually on energy Bottom line: We cannot remain competitive or meet our corporate sustainability goals unless our plants become highly energy efficient 3-Year Plan Annual site energy plans with specific goals Overall target of 15% reduction in energy use (3 years) Capital made available for energy projects having >25% IRR Sites delivered $48MM in energy savings in 08 ~5% Mostly low cost fix up/tune up kinds of improvements Very attractive financials, overall.
17 Progress Toward Goals Footprint Goals Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions Progress: Overall, down 8.5 %since This represents 56% of goal. Fleet Fuel Efficiency Progress: 39% of current U.S. vehicles are using leading technology. This represents 39% of goal. Reduce Air Carcinogens Progress: Down 50% overall. This represents 100% of goal. Global Manufacturing Sites Verification of Environmental Management Goals Progress: 53% of sites are ISO Certified. This represents 53% of goal Reduced Water Consumption Progress: Sites in stressed areas up 7% Total water consumption is down 2% Market Facing Goals Increase R&D Investment Progress: $570 Million invested in 2008 Goal is set at $640 million Increase Annual Revenue Buy at least $2 billion from products that create energy efficiency or reducing greenhouse gas emissions Progress: $108 million in revenues Nearly double revenues from nondepletable resources to at least $8B Progress: Revenues increased to $6.8B Introduce 1,000 New Products and Services to help make people safer and more secure Progress: Introduced 371

19 Critical Success Factors 1. Vision Clearly Defined by Leadership at the Top 2. An Implementer Linda Fisher DuPont Chief Sustainability Officer Ellen Kullman DuPont CEO 3. Set Public Goals/Metrics so Everyone Can Measure Progress 4. Organizational Engagement and Culture Transformation 2015 Sustainability Goals 5. Corporate Environmental Planning Process (CEP) Integrated with Strategic Business Planning Process 6. Implementation Excellence 7. Recognize Key Programs and Accomplishments Sustainable Growth Excellence Awards 8. Form Relationships
20 Five Strategies to Fulfillment of Energy Needs 1. Do nothing 2. Remix (develop non-emitting alternatives and switch off emitting) 3. Technology play on fossil fuels 4. Offsets carbon projects 5. Efficiency: 1. Own Efficiency 2. Demand management (industrial and consumer) Good for stakeholders 3. Technology Play 5. Energy Efficiency 2. Remix 1. Do Nothing Good for Shareholders
21 Three key questions to get started 1. How do you know every of reduction goes to the opportunity that gives most benefit? 2. Do you have a centralised or diffused decision making process? 3. How do you sustain your cultural change?
