ECO2Value

WHO WE ARE

Aligning the requirements of ecology and economy in an intelligent way, whilst not omitting the social issues in order to be prepared for the rising challenges of the future – isn’t that just the “new normal” for any well-managed corporation?

As our experience of the last 15 years proves, not really. In the daily race to succeed in the hard key performance indicators like Quality, Innovation, Sales, Market Share and Revenue the “soft key performance indicators of Sustainability” often get prioritized further down, even in the most successful enterprises.

Exactly in these issues we are able to add value to your organization, by supporting you in Environmental, Health and Safety as well as Sustainability/Corporate Social Responsibility performance as well as related matters such as Management Systems, Life Cycle Management and CO₂-Footprint-Improvement, Reputation and Ranking Management, Innovation-, Technology-, and Strategy-Management as well as Business Risk Management.

We comprehend these focus areas as holistic – including product and production in the interests of all stakeholders, from suppliers to customers, from "neighbors" to shareholders – focusing on today, with a strategic view on the future.

We are eCO2value GmbH (UK: eCO2value Ltd., US: eCO2value LLC) – a company that aligns ecological needs with economical facts to create sustainable value, measureable through the CO₂-Footprint of your product, service and the company as a whole. We represent 15-30 years of business experience per consultant, collected through achievements and successes with the market and technology leaders in automobile, renewable energy and other industries – and we are operating in all continents of the globe: Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas.

See on the next pages some of our references and case study examples – as well as pertaining benefits for your organization – furthermore an overview of our services, our team and the ways and means to contact us.

So, go ahead and challenge us!

Our vision

"3R" - a holistic Sustainability/Corporate Social Responsibility management that effectively and efficiently saves Resources, minimizes Risks and improves Reputation.

Our mission

To set up your organization the best possible way for the future through the entire value chain, throughout the entire product or service life cycle – on the basis of your CO₂-Footprint as the undisputed global sustainability key performance indicator, including CO₂ as the future global

ecological currency *.

* In order to limit the greenhouse effect-based global temperature rise and consequently the financial consequences of approx. 15.000 billion $ until 2100 as per Stern Report (2006), 194 States agreed in Cancún 2010 a limit of maximum two degrees Celsius by 2050 - compared to the average temperature before industrialization, as well as cuts in CO₂ emissions between 50-80% until 2050.

According to the Carbon Tracker Initiative and the International Energy Agency this represents a CO₂ emission limit between 565 to 886 billion to (Gt) of CO₂ until 2050. Hence a global CO₂ emission trade scheme for pertaining CO₂ pollution rights via certificates is currently developing. Current local markets exist in the EU, Mexico, Korea, China and some US States, with a current price range in the EU on a ton of CO₂ of about 3-12 € due to the economical go-slow. This price is expected to rise to 12-20 € or more in future due to rising climate-related pressure as well as economical growth – with the revenues from this CO₂ Market to be invested in climate protection measures.

Therefore, those corporations that reduce their CO₂ Footprint now can benefit in several ways:

Immediate increased sustainability performance and improved reputation,

Immediate cost savings through reduced resource consumption,

Future additional revenues through selling of - due to the increased sustainability performance - unused CO₂ pollution rights in the developing global CO₂ Market,

Future additional cost savings through avoidance of expensive investments under stakeholder, legislative and time pressure.

Our approach

Performance-oriented and strategic with a sense for visions including a clear idea of how to implement these visions step by step, as well as authenticity in communication and motivation - all this on a solid foundation of ethics, integrity and personal courage.

Our beliefs

We believe your organization deserves a dedicated partner that does not only present a list of projects with impressive client names - but also presents you the individuals that achieved these results for these clients.

We believe you deserve to consult an agency that serves your issues individually on location, side by side with you to achieve the best that you can achieve - and hence a partner that will not stop until you are satisfied, in a transparent and measurable manner through clearly defined key performance indicators.

Your checklist

Are you sure you have done the best to reduce the resource consumption and minimize the unnecessary cost related to the environmental performance of your organization?

How far do you believe you have managed to minimize safety & health related risks and maximized satisfaction as well as retention of human capital, not to speak of minimization of related cost?

Are you aware of how much a simple continuous improvement in just a few prioritized areas can affect the triple bottom line, as well as the reputation and rating of your company in the eyes of your stakeholders and shareholders?

Do you have sufficient personnel resources to deliver the above in the light of continuous social and political change towards more sustainability, and increasing

regulation,

responsibility for product & production,

transparency and reporting requirements,

reputational efforts and

pressure to reduce on environmental cost?

If you are in a position to tick off these four challenging tasks as "done", we congratulate you on your successful quest towards a "sustain-able corporation".

If you lack one or more of these tasks, we encourage you to contact us for a dialogue on the issues that matter to you – by phone, by Skype or if manageable in person and on location.
