Implementing Carbon Reduction Without Impacting Working Capital Presented by Dylan Crompton
Evolution of a Carbon Strategy Proactive organisations are on a journey to reduce carbon emissions.
Marginal Abatement Cost (MAC) Curve Provides a route map to achieve your carbon reduction target.
Profiles of organisations we meet No Route Map Route Map Mature Super-Mature May or May Not Have a Carbon Have a Carbon Have a Carbon have a Carbon Target and a specific Target and a specific Target and a specific Target but no action plan action plan action plan specific action plan Many high impact Have implemented Have implemented Unknown set of projects still to be high impact projects all relevant projects measures to be implemented done Also need to Need to unlock further potential Have no need for any further Need advice on how implement longer from longer payback reductions to plan and implement their carbon strategy payback measures to achieve overall target measures to achieve overall target Focus on maintaining performance
What Happens Next Directly Observed Investment case put forward for development of a route map, high impact projects and/or longer term payback projects Capex granted and organisation proceeds to next step Or capex declined due to: Lack of high level commitment Prioritisation of funds elsewhere Insufficient time/knowledge to implement Uncertain outcomes Business case in now outside company metrics Customer Landscape Improve profitability, shareholder value Constraints on capex and opex expenditure Drive to improve working capital Preserve credit rating Investment required in ageing infrastructure Increasing Legislation How do you overcome these significant barriers within this landscape?
