Elements of Industrial Symbiosis

• Network of diverse organisations

• Expert facilitation

• Fostering eco-innovation and long-term culture change

• Yielding profitable transactions in:

- Novel sourcing of inputs

- Value added destinations for non-product outputs

- Improved business and technical processes

Drivers for Industrial Symbiosis

• Volatility of resource pricing

• McKinsey report, Resource Revolution

• At risk critical raw materials

• Rising awareness of sustainability issues

• Carbon Trading to include Scope 3 embedded emissions

• Climate Change Mitigation

Imperative for practical approaches to create growth


Economic impact of Industrial Symbiosis

• Micro: Individual businesses –

• Reduced cost of raw materials

• Reduced cost of waste disposal

• Revenue from new products

• Leading to increased profits and competitiveness

• Macro: Economy –

• Return on investment for Government

• Stimulates (eco-) innovation

• Control of critical materials

Uutta liiketoimintaa teollisista

symbiooseista -työpaja Korjaamo, Helsinki

12.4.2012

Yhteenveto työpajasta

Tiistaina 11.3. järjestettiin Pohjoismaiden ensimmäinen teollisia symbiooseja edistävä NISP-työpaja Korjaamolla. Aamupäivän aikana potentiaalisia synergioita, resurssien tarjoajien ja hyödyntäjien kohtaamisia, löytyi todella hyvin, jopa yli odotusten. Neljän pöydän ääreen kokoontuneet yritysten edustajat tunnistivat kaikkiaan 165 resurssia ja mahdollisia synergioita jo 119. Osa osallistujista keskittyi ideomaan, miten tällaista toimintamallia kannatta kehittää Suomessa ja miten eri toimijat osallistuisivat tähän. Todettiin että eri puolilla Suomea on paljon osaamista ja hankkeita juuri resurssien tehokkaamman hyödyntämisen mahdollistamiseen. Tästä on hyvä lähteä kehittämään uusia symbiooseja Suomessa!

Osallistujat Turun amk Gaia Group Oy Ajon Apu Oy Indufor Oy SYKE Fortum Oy Mikkelin amk Aalto-yliopisto St1 Biofuels Oy Metsä Group Uusioaines Oy Kouvola Innovation Oy PBI UPM Kierrätysverkko Oy Spinverse Consulting Oy Kemira Oyj L&T Recoil Oy Ekokem Oy Ab Muotoilutoimisto Kaisa K SITA Suomi Oy Tikkurila Oyj Lassila & Tikanoja Oyj Forchem Oy Oy Sinebrychoff Ab Risain Oy HSY CEE-Centre for Environment and Energy Digipolis Oy EcoChange Oy Ferroplan Oy Neste Oil Corporation Ahlstrom Oyj Ympäristöyritysten liitto ry Tekes FSKK Oy

Miten symbioosien verkosto kehittyy seuraavaksi? • Seuraava työpaja 11.4 Jyväskylässä • Resurssitiedot viedään yhteiseen tietokantaan. • Tietokantaa täydennetään eri tavoin • Tietokannan avulla tunnistetaan uusia synergioita ja niiden

toteutumista vauhditetaan

Mitä työpajan jälkeen? • Sinulle lähetetään yritys/ organisaatiokohtainen synergiaraportti • Käynnistä keskustelut mahdollisten yhteistyökumppaneiden kanssa

edistääksesi mahdollisia synergioitasi. Tähän voit saada apua työpajan järjestäjiltä

• Olemme käytettävissäsi, ole aktiivinen, pyydä apua, haluamme seurata synergioiden edistymistä.

Mentiin hyvin kokreettisiin asioihin. Niiden pohjalta oli helppoa muodostaa näkemys mitä on tarjolla ja haussa

Symbiosis Networks

Theme 2: Energy Security and Climate Change Mitigation Recommendation: Incentivise Carbon Reductions through Industrial

Symbiosis Credits

Theme 3: Material Security Recommendation: Move Materials up the Waste Hierarchy through

Industrial Symbiosis Innovation

Theme 4: Regional Economic Development Recommendation: Close Local Loops through Industrial Symbiosis

Planning


Public Sector creates the context to enable IS

• Regulation

• Investment

• Address externalities (e.g. price of carbon, water)

Private Sector actions the synergies for green

growth

• Resources

• Demand-pull eco-innovation

• Investment

Aims and Objectives for EUR-ISA - 2013

Action for Inclusive Green Growth

Industrial Symbiosis: Common Challenges

• Ongoing investment

• Engaging across government siloes

• Enabling cross-sector working

• Regulation

BUT …

• No risk

• Low investment- high reward

• Can be done today!
