1 Creating Sustainable roduct Service Systems The model of the Eco-costs/ Value Ratio dr. ir. Joost G. Vogtländer Delft University of Technology, 2009
2 The Issues: 1. What is a sustainable product? 2. Understanding the concept of the value of products and services 3. How can you calculate the eco-burden of a product 4. What is the meaning of eco-efficiency (E/E indicator)? 5. How can we generate eco-efficient value creation? 6. How do we apply SS successfully? 1 Details in
3 2 Bundling roducts and Services has a long history in business BC 0 AC In environmentalists invented SS as a hype In environmentalists played down the importance of SS In 2009, however: you can prove that SS works, you will learn how
4 Fig. 1.2 The road towards sustainability requires well balanced decisions on the 3 s complex trade-off: short term long term distribution of prosperity eople (the poor people in the 3rd world) lanet (our future environment) rofit (our own prosperity) 3 LCA model EVR model
5 4 Fig. 3.1b The model of the costs, the price and the value benefit profit consumer manufacturer costs price value In a integral approach, businesses will continuously strive for improvement of the value/costs ratio Note: value = product quality + service quality + image
6 5 Fig. 3.2a The difference of commodity products and top quality services is the margin costs price value costs price value Commodity products (grain, milk, electricity) Top quality products/services (diners in restaurants, perfume, jewels, sports cars) Commodity products are high volume, low margin Top Quality products and services are low volume, high margin
7 Fig. 3.2b The value and the costs get lower in time during the life of a product type % buyers 34% 34% 2,5% innovators 13,5% early adopters early majority late majority 16% laggards Time costs price value costs price value costs price value 6 Innovative products: high costs, high value, low volume, exclusive Normal products low costs, medium value high volume, Q driven Common products low costs, low value high volume, costs driven
8 Fig. 3.3 Case: the value bundle of the mobile phone market (a SS) costs price value costs price value The mobile phone (negative margin) The telecom services (positive margin) profit market costs price value 7 roduct Service System (= bundling in 1 package)
9 We understand now the rofit & rosperity. Next: the of lanet. The issue: How to calculate the environmental burden eople (economic growth in the 3rd world) 8 lanet (our future environment) LCA model EVR model rofit (our own prosperity)
10 Fig. 2.1a The environmental burden might be characterised by the external costs of damage emissions to air energy materials processing production use recycling materials maintenance emissions to water and soil 9 the calculation is extremely complex and involves many assumptions and subjective weighting steps..
11 Fig. 2.1b. however, I prefer to define eco-costs in terms of the marginal prevention costs the eco-costs are the costs of prevention measures, which are required to reduce the current emissions, to a sustainable level emissions to air energy X X materials 10 X X X X X X X X materials production use recycling emissions to water and soil maintenance X
12 11 Fig. 2.1c Comparison of eco-costs and external damage costs : prevention results in less damage Eco-costs of emissions (the marginal pollution prevention costs ) 2007: - acidification: 7,55 /kg SO x equivalent - eutrophication: 3,60 /kg phosphate equivalent - eco toxicity: 802 /kg Zn equivalent - carciogenics: 14,5 /kg AH equivalent - summer smog: 3,54 /kg VOC equivalent - fine dust: 14,5 /kg fine dust M10 - global warming: 0,135 / kg CO 2 equivalent Marginal external damage costs related to health problems, from the Benefits Table database of the European Commission DG Environment: The Netherlands EU-15 average - acidification: 7,00 /kg 5,20 /kg (SO x equivalent) - fine dust: 18,0 /kg 14,0 /kg (fine dust M2.5) - summer smog: 2,40 /kg 2,10 /kg (VOC equivalent)
13 12 data Examples of eco-costs of emissions: VC: 0,33 per kilogram (price 0,60 per kilogram) Aluminium: 2,22 per kilogram (price 2,20 per kilogram) Recycled AL: 0,27 per kilogram (price 2,20 per kilogram) Examples of eco-costs per Euro real money : Transport by plane: Transport by truck: Warehouses: Offices and houses: Cars: Diesel: Labour: 1,00 thru 1,50 per Euro 0,45 thru 0,70 per Euro 0,50 per Euro 0,35 per Euro 0,30 per Euro (excl fuel!) 1,00 per Euro 0,05 tot 0,15 per Euro
14 We understand now the of rofit & rosperity and how to calculate the eco-costs (the of lanet). Next: the delinking of economy and environment. The issue: economy versus ecology delinking eople (economic growth in the 3rd world) 13 lanet (our future environment) LCA model EVR model rofit (our own prosperity)
15 14 Fig. 1.1 The tripple model is not about or but about and What we need now is a new era of economic growth growth that is forceful and at the same time socially and environmentally sustainable. (Brundtland, 1987) The delivery of competitively priced goods and services that satisfy human needs and bring quality of life, while progressively reducing ecological impacts and resource intensity, throughout the lifecycle, to a level at least in line with the earth s estimated carrying capacity (WBCSD, 1995) value profit eco-costs planet
16 Fig. 4.1a The basic idea of the EVR model: Combining the value chain of orter and the LCA chain Value : value + value + value + value + value + value = Total value materials distribution semifinished products end products use end of life Costs : costs + costs + costs + costs + costs + costs = Total costs Eco- eco- + eco- + eco- + eco- + eco- + eco- = Total ecocosts costs costs costs costs costs costs costs 15 Note: the eco-costs are relatively high at the front end of the chain, the value is relatively low at the front end, which is causing a double problem in the developing countries
17 Fig. 4.1b Case: The EVR in a production chain. A TV from components to the retail shop, produced inside the EU ) Eco-costs (Euro) retail distribution marketing assembly components Value (Euro) 16 Note that the slope of the line is the EVR
18 Fig. 4.1c The eco-costs, the costs and the value of a product and/or service LCA EVR = Eco-costs Value emissions labour depreciation energy materials profit tax labour depreciation energy materials image service Q product Q ECO-COSTS COSTS VALUE 17 Note: Value is the market value (the fair price)
19 Fig. 4.2 The consumers side: reference of expenditures of households in the Netherlands (1995) 100% percentage 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% remainder holidays transport heating&elec. housing clothing health food 0% < > 27.3 classes of yearly expenditures of households (in 1000 Euro) 18 EVR: transport & holidays = ; housing 0,3 ; clothing & health 0,2

21 Fig. 4.3a Case: Reduction of the weight of a car, by a redesign of a part of the coach-work (cumulative effect over the total life cycle) pollution prevention Eco-costs of CO2 costs of CO2 in DM part of car fuel steel polymer Value value (euro) in DM 20 Data from Dr. Konrad Saur, E roduct Engineering GmbH
22 21 Fig. 4.3c Case: Savings of fuel by a better aerodynamic design? The rebound effect Savings? Germany The Netherlands fuel ecocosts extra money available value
23 Fig. 4.3e The required direction of delinking : less eco-costs, but also more value (= eco-efficient value creation ) ecocosts better EVR e.g. More labour Less materials Less energy More expensive value 22 Note: angle = 1/EVR
24 Fig. 4.3f 23 Case: Better EVR of Hybrid Cars. The Lexus features Eco-efficient Value Creation: - better acceleration + less noise = more market value - lower eco-costs (by better fuel efficiency)
25 24 Case: Senseo of Sara Lee / DE (a SS?) Eco-efficient Value Creation - more convenience = more market value - lower eco-costs (less boiling water)
26 Case: Senseo of Sara Lee / DE (more value at a lower EVR) eco-costs EVR of classical coffee EVR of Senseo coffee energy to make a cup of coffee packaging roasting & distr. coffee value 25 Last step: further reduction of the eco-costs of the packaging of Senseo
27 The 3 s and the EVR model: Strategic consequences for developing a SS The issue: Does a SS help? And How? eople (economic growth in the 3rd world) 26 lanet (our future environment) LCA model EVR model rofit (our own prosperity)
28 Fig. 4.4a roduct portfolio matrix for product strategy of companies ecocosts High Low Quit now Short Term no market SS Short Term success Long Term no market Long Term Core roduct apply SS for: 1. financing of investment 2. enhancing convenience 3. enhancing image redesign: a. production & distribution b. materials selection c. reduction of energy Low High Value/Costs 27
29 Fig. 4.3a 1. Example SS: required financing of the investment Case: Reduction of the weight of a car, by a redesign of a part of the coach-work pollution prevention Eco-costs of CO2 costs of CO2 in DM part of car fuel steel polymer Value value (euro) in DM 28 Note that polymer more than doubles the price of the car

31 3. Examples SS: more image Case Chauffeur + Car: posh Case Sustainable Dance Club: cool 30 Result: more value Result: more value
32 31 Concluding: Don t blame the customer for not buying green but create eco-efficient value (= minimum Ecocosts/Value Ratio) by means of a SS
