Post Covid Carbon Neutrality Carbon Workshop Agenda

by Andrea D'Rozario - E Phase Energy Sdn. Bhd.

• Current Energy scenario and Our carbon footprint
• Green building design and operation
• Renewable energy and clean energy generation
• Low carbon cities
• The way forward in

In light of the current pandemic, there has certainly been a shift in how we now have to do things. In relation to carbon neutrality, we are still pursuing the path of fighting climate change by working at reducing our carbon emissions. It has been reported that due to the lockdown in some countries, carbon emissions have only reduced between 4 to 7% worldwide. We saw people being confined to the homes, transportation and travel coming to a near standstill, and most retail and industries

shutting down operations. However, this was limited by uncontrolled burning of forests fires in a few areas. As we pursue carbon neutrality, we first need to know where our carbon emissions are coming from and how much we can reduce it. On the contrary, to offset carbon emissions, we also need to source for cleaner forms of generating energy and having enough forestation as our carbon sink.

One of the biggest consumers of energy is industrial facilities (46%), commercial buildings (32%) and residential homes (21%). Industrial facilities are high energy consumers and so there's only so much you can control. But we found a huge potential when it came to commercial and residential buildings. When the pandemic hit us, a majority of the industrial and commercial operations had to cease. Naturally, residential consumption rose as people stayed home. It will be interesting to see how the consumption trend changes over time and how much society can adapt to the new normal, once things are under control. All this will certainly have an impact on our carbon footprint. We generate a total 34MWh mainly from coal, natural gas in Malaysia. Out of that energy mix, renewable energy produces 22.5% of that, hydro, solar 2%, biomass, biogas. Our solar production is only 2% and the government intends to increase this to 20% by 2025 through various programs such

as large-scale solar farms and rooftop solar for buildings and individual homes. In order to be carbon neutral, we need to generate enough clean energy to offset the energy being consumed worldwide. Things for discussion will include the feasibility of renewable energy to replace fossil fuels and oil, carbon footprint reduction from all avenue streams and maintaining or increasing the forests as a carbon sink. We will look at low carbon cities with clean energy generation, integrated public transportation, environmentally sustainable practices and community health and living. All these complementing the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

Awareness of Carbon Footprint Accounting- A step towards Sustainability: -

By Abhineet Kumar Jha (Workshop) - Applus India Private Limited

Climate change arising from anthropogenic activity has been identified as one of the greatest challenges facing the world and will continue to affect business and citizens over future decades. Climate change has implications for both human and natural systems and could lead to significant impacts on resource availability, economic activity and human wellbeing. In response, international, regional, national and local initiatives are being developed and implemented by public and private sectors to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the Earth's atmosphere, as well as to facilitate adaptation to climate change. There is a need for an effective and progressive response to the urgent threat of climate change on the basis of the best available scientific knowledge. Due to humans' heavy reliance on fossil fuels, energy usage, and constant deforestation, the amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere is increasing, which makes reducing a greenhouse gas footprint harder to achieve. Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are gases that increase the temperature of the Earth due to their absorption of infrared radiation. Although some emissions are natural, the rate of which they are being produced has increased because of humans. These gases are emitted from fossil fuel usage in electricity, in heat and transportation, as well as being emitted as by-products of manufacturing. The most common GHGs are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and many fluorinated gases. A greenhouse gas footprint is the numerical quantity of these gases that a single entity emits. The calculations can be computed ranging from a single person to the entire world.

Carbon emissions are generated from a lot of sources, and they have pretty sizeable contributions. Little steps towards minimizing your carbon footprint will go a long way in reversing climate change.

ISO 50001 ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Learning & Implementation: -

By Rashmi S Singh (Workshop)- - Applus India Private Limited

ISO 50001:2018 specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving an energy management system (EnMS).

Energy management is the key to saving energy in your organization. When it comes to energy saving, energy management is the process of monitoring, controlling, and conserving energy in a building or organization. Much of the importance of energy saving stems from the global need to save energy - this global need affects energy prices, emissions targets, and legislation, all of which lead to several compelling reasons why you should save energy at your organization specifically.

If it wasn't for the global need to save energy, the term "energy management" might never have even been coined... Globally we need to save energy in order to:

• Reduce the damage that we're doing to our planet, Earth. As a human race we would probably find things rather difficult without the Earth, so it makes good sense to try to make it last.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH "INTELLIGENT" PROCCESSES:

- By Rajnish Kumar & Abhineet Kumar Jha (Workshop) Applus India Private Limited

For over a hundred years, the primarily goal of construction or establishing any set up of different functions and engineering was that the setup/building/industry would endure over time. The great architectural works have succeeded, but their high cost makes these projects unqualified to be repeated.

The intelligent operations (building, commercial, industrial, institutional, construction, domestic etc) concept has evolved from its definition 30 years ago, due to new technological challenges, leaving behind its old meaning, and updating it to present times. Sustainable and affordable energy is one of the important key of success of any business or development of the country as whole.

The "intelligent" processes are those that ultimately can make the difference between current and future way in which we understand energy efficiency in future, although with time and advancement one will want to call them in different ways.

The need is for Smart operations and efficient operations which is totally based on 4 pillars:

1. Innovation,

2. R&D,

3. Analysis, and

4. Implementation

And these above 4 are dependent upon another 4 pillars:

i. Feasibility,

ii. Suitability,

iii. Acceptability,

iv. Economical

And all these together lead to sustainable pathway of energy efficiency.

Co-creating Regenerative PATHways towards a Thriving Future

BY Dr Anne Munro Kua.

Modelling Regenerative Best Practice Thinking

As responsible leaders, entrepreneurs and professionals we are confronted with unprecedented challenges to running "life and business as usual", challenges from impact of the COVID19 Pandemic AND the complex ongoing devastating effects of Climate Change. While the tragic, volatile, disruptive impact of this scenario can be overwhelming, we have an enormous opportunity to audit our relationship with the planet and be brutally honest about the degenerative practices that got us into this mess. We are being called on to radically transform ourselves to lead a regenerative

equitable future. The question is where do we start? AMK Transformations (founded in 1995) has done the research grounded in 30 years of practice and invites you to begin by examining and modelling the ways of thinking that can underpin the transformational journey we must undertake if we are to survive never mind thrive. None of us have made this particular journey before and thus must adopt a

collaborative co-creative approach for the collective benefit of all. Join us to explore together the mindset and strategies that early explorers and adopters provide that gives us a guide to how the current and future generations can work towards creating a vibrant world. These selected PATH skills represent some of the most powerful people technologies today, which centre on the modelling of human excellence. Unlike other approaches grounded in theory, this approach focuses on the best practice models that emerge when we ask the practical question of how a person a team, an organisation achieves amazing results! No competition here, but rather

the questioning posed with deep curiosity of "How do you do that?" in all its complexity of thoughts, behaviour and sequence. And over the last forty years such curiosity and focused questioning has elicited and generated a range of models of excellence in the field of human communication and potential development.

Such modelling of excellence involves a methodology, a way of thinking and questioning that lies at the heart of modelling. Secondly, we now have amazing models of excellence, available for us to acquire and achieve the same excellent results. This means that excellence is no longer the preserve of those considered to be a rare genius. Because we now have the best practice blueprints of thoughts, language and behaviours in displaying excellence, we are able to reproduce that

excellence repeatedly and teach it to others. 

We have designed this PATH programme with both aspects in mind, a modelling mind-set (at the heart of continuous learning) methodology and technique. Throughout the programme we build a habitual model of thinking involving multiple perspectives of the world, proven to generate success wherever you apply them, in your personal and/or professional life. And throughout the workshop we teach selected practical behavioural models that together provide a toolbox for continuing

professional (& personal) excellence. 

We provide the structure and the generic skills, you and your people provide their specialist expertise ( eg as engineer) and the relevant contexts. This collaborative approach means that as we explore methodology and technique we constantly do so in relevant real world situations specific to each of our clients

WASTE MANAGEMENT TOP OF THE HIERARCHY

- By Rajnish Kumar (Workshop) -Applus India Private Limited

"There are few things certain in life – one is death, second is change and the other is waste." No one can stop these things to take place in our lives. But with better management we can prepare ourselves. Here we will talk about waste and waste management. Each of us has a right to clean air, water and food. This right can be fulfilled by maintaining a clear and healthy environment. The degradation of environment is a global concern and its protection has no confines. One of the main causes of environmental degradation is improper management in the handling of household waste and it has been observed to be one of the major causes of pollution and outbreak of diseases in many parts of the world i.e., household waste is a major environmental and public health problem, especially for the large cities in any country.

Now for the first question, what is waste? Any material which is not needed by the owner, producer or processor is waste. Generally, waste is defined as at the end of the product life cycle and is disposed of in landfills. Most businesses define waste as "anything that does not create value". In a common man's eye anything that is unwanted or not useful is garbage or waste. However scientifically speaking there is no waste as such in the world. Almost all the components of solid waste have some potential if it is converted or treated in a scientific manner.

Session will cover Classification of waste on the basis of physical state, chemical properties and biological nature; Problems like Design, Planning, segregation, storage, Handling & transportation, awareness, treatment, and impact on our biosphere. Further the policies, strategies, controls (source correction, engineering control & administrative controls), consultation and participation of citizen and encouragement of their effective participation because waste management lead to severe impact on Soil, Air & water which provides basic material for the survival of life.

Session will also include Hygiene and sanitation aspects which are getting hampered due to lack of or unscientific way of waste management and Waste to Energy.
