Resource & Energy Efficiency

Resource & Energy Efficiency

Resource & Energy Efficiency offers a powerful and cost-effective tool for achieving a sustainable future. Resource & Energy Efficiency saves money and cuts emissions faster than any other climate change mitigation option.

Efficiently using resources and energy consequentially bring about both
economic and ecological advantages. By enacting efficiency measures,
organisations simultaneously save costs and reduce environmental
impacts and risks. The ever increasing scarcity of resources is provoking
growing numbers of organisations to find alternatives to traditional energy
sources. This often involves changing energy supplies, procedures or
choice of supplier.

Resource & Energy Efficiency - perform a Life Cycle Assessment

However, a narrow focus on energy and resources hardly facilitates the
completion of complex analyses aimed to quickly identifying solutions
and alternatives. Taking this into account, environmental impacts do not
have to be directly considered in order to be reduced. We aim rather to
perform a simplified Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to calculate the degree to which material and energy amount inputs can be decreased without incurring any additional environmental burdens. 

 Benefit
Determine the strategic risks and environmental optimisation potentials of products at an early stage.
Identify the magnitude and relevance of each individual step within a products life cycle. Which stage causes the greatest environmental burden?
Solidify your need for ecological action and identify the most efficient measures for adjustment.
Obtain solid information regarding the environmental impacts of you organizations processes and products to improve external communications with customers, suppliers and other stakeholders.
Spur environmental innovation by implementing Life Cycle Assesments.
Generating understanding of Life Cycle Thinking and integrate it into day-to-day business on all levels.
Improve communication lines with political decision makers and public authorities with the help of a LCA

Service & Solution

Analyse your company’s products and processes with the help of PE INTERNATIONAL’s Life-Cycle-Assessment (LCA). Over 1000 companies from around the world trust our consulting services an our leading LCA software GaBi.


Life Cycle Assessment (LCA): Analyses and comparisons of product,
process and services according to the ISO standard covering the whole
life cycle from the production of raw materials to end of life.

Carbon Footprint: Calculations of greenhouse gas emissions stemming
from products as well as companies.

Water Footprint: Determine the balance of water consumption over the
course of the production chain, life cycle and at the organisation site.

Critical Review: Review of comparative Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies in accordance with the ISO standard.

Social LCA: Analysis and illustration of scalable social factors with
reference to products.

Life Cycle Costing (LCC): Analysis and illustration of the life cycle costs of a product.

Analysis of material flows: Record, analyse and optimise the energy and
material flows within a company or branch.
