Guidelines for implementation of CO2-reducing initiatives Process steps 1 Baseline for CO2 emission Initiatives – opportunitiesand risks Direction of theCO2 journey Targets, reporting and communication Start implementation 2 3 4 5 • Identify important operational areas internally as well as externally in which CO2 emission could be reduced • Measure CO2 emission • Identify drivers for CO2 emission • Identify initiatives reducing CO2from own and externalpartiesin the value chain • Identify risks and opportunities of outlined initiatives • Prioritisation of outlined initiatives and connections between them • Involve the ”right” persons/knowledge • Perform analyses, calculations, effect assessment etc. • Prepare business case • Assess outlined initiatives in relation to effects, competitive advantages, investment etc. • Select initiative for implementation • Determine the target for CO2 emission • Decide how and how frequently target figures and progress are to be reported and to whom in the organisation • Decide how to communicate • Determine actions when target figures are exceeded • Define roles and responsibilities • Define and determine milestones • Create anchoring through the right involvement • Initiate communication internally as well as externally to e.g. customers, suppliers and cooperators Activities • Overview of the current CO2 level • Experience in calculating CO2 • Prioritisation of CO2-reducing initiatives • Overview of opportunities and risks • Specificationof relevant CO2-reducing initiatives • Business case or reduction potential • Targetsandreporting structure • Communication plan • Action plan when effects are not achieved • Implementation and communication plan • The beginning of more environmentally friendly transport Deliverables Note: CO2 calculation models are available on the Internet, see e.g. http://www.key2green.dk/, which is a voluntary cooperation between the Danish environmental networks, or http://www.itd.dk/, which is an association of the professional road transport companies in Denmark.
