Siemens & Sustainability
Global Sustainability Centre
“It is a clear sign of the confidence in London’s ability to nurture and support eco-enterprises that Siemens
has chosen to locate its flagship centre of sustainability here in the UK capital. The Siemens Centre is set to
sit at the heart of a brand new Green Enterprise District, which will sweep across east of the city. We
envisage that the district will be a vibrant, international hub incubating dozens of low carbon business.”
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London

Key Drivers for Energy Efficiency & Sustainability
• Climate change levy (CCL)
• Renewable heat incentive (RHI)
• Climate change agreements
(CCAs)
• Renewable obligations, ROCs
and FITs
• Building regulations – “Part L2”
• Carbon reduction commitment
(CRC EES)
• Enhanced capital allowances
(ECAs)
• Landfill tax
• Eco Design directive (“EuP” & “ERP”) – mandatory legislation
• Energy performance of buildings directive (EPBD)
• Large combustion plant directive (LCPD)
• Landfill directive
• Waste Incineration directive (WID)
• Measuring instruments directive (MID)
• Environmental permitting programme.
• European emissions trading scheme (EU ETS)
• International standards:-.- ISO 50001 / EN 16001
- EN 15232
- EN 15900
General Policy Regulation & Standards UK Specific Measures
• Kyoto Protocol and targets on greenhouse gas reduction
• IPCC Reports
• Stern report on the financial implication of climate change
• UK Government targets – 80% CO2e reduction by 2050
• UK energy policy
• Climate Change Act
• Low carbon Strategy:
- Transport
- Manufacturing
The Policy Landscape drives Concrete Measures
*Selected examples only!
(UK Energy Prices & Forecast for 2000-2013)
Key Drivers ” Energy Costs
• Result from 2, 500 site audits
• Evaluation of 22 key areas
• 13 sites identified as ‚best practice‛
• Average 20% reduction in energy consumption based on measures with 3 year payback.
Opportunities for UK Organisations
Tools and processes exist to facilitate this systematic continuous improvement programme
Consultancy
Led Approach
Logical structure and project sequence
Ongoing consultancy support to oversee implementation
“A systematic approach delivers maximum cost and carbon reduction
“This process forms the basis of a long term continuous improvement programme
“Simplifies environmental compliance issues
“Aligned with requirements of the international energy management standard ISO 50001 / BS EN 16001
“400% savings compared to an ‘ad hoc’ approach
A ‘Best Practice’ Approach
Energy Efficiency in Siemens
“ Around 100 facilities in the UK - Total energy costs around £17M.“ Successful EE programmes in place across the Siemens estate
A Site Case Study - Congleton
“ A Global manufacturing centre for Variable Speed Drives, over 500 employees. Produces approx ½ million drives per annum.
“ Drives manufactured in Congleton are currently saving clients around 4M tonnes CO2 per annum.
“ Between 2007-2010 their consumption of gas reduced by 25% & Electricity by 35%
“ Achieved through various initiatives from low carbon heating solutions, enhanced Compressor Controls, improved lighting, building fabric, low energy ventilation.....and application of VSDs
“ Also now selected to participate in the international programme..................
Energy Efficiency in Siemens - Congleton
• Ring fenced €100M global fund only for energy efficiency projects over 2 years
• Priority funding for programmes on defined sites with the largest consumption
• All projects approved within defined 3-4 year ‚payback‛ schedule
• Phase 1 in implementation and phase 2 in preparation.
• 4 Sites in the UK are currently in Phase1
• Over £3M investment for 4 sites (inc. Congleton - > £250k with c. 3 year payback)
Energy Efficiency in Siemens
• Global programme led from Barbara Kux
• Initially focused on top 160 key worldwide suppliers
• Offered access to the Siemens best practice approach
• Identified average 17% energy saving with 3 year payback
• Preferred clients for the energy efficiency solutions portfolio
• Second phase will include top 800 global suppliers
Energy Efficiency for Suppliers (EE4S)
“ Grants? (LEPs, Regional organisations?...)
“ Salix ” public sector loans?
“ Green deal / Green Investment Bank? [2012]
“ Private sector finance
“ Enhanced capital allowances (ECAs)
“ Carbon trust loans (New ” April 2011)
“ SFS - £2 billion Green Investment Fund
Financing Energy Efficiency and Carbon Reduction Projects
“ Clear, consistent and coherent legislation
“ Stability
“ A framework competitive with international environments
“ Authoritative advice
What do UK Organisations Need?
• Specific policies ” e.g.
– Incentivise ISO 50001 accreditation
– Mandatory DECs
– Standardised emissions reporting
• Public sector as leading example
• UK & EU programmes
• Attitude vs policy?
Issue for Debate
