ISO 50001 and SEP Certifications

ISO 50001 and SEP Certifications

NNA-Smyrna received ISO 50001 and Superior Energy Performance (SEP) Certifications in 2012.

Became the first passenger-vehicle manufacturing facility to attain ISO 50001 and SEP certifications.

Within 3 years of establishing baseline, the Smyrna plant improved energy performance by 7%.

The Road Ahead How Things Change in a Couple of Years…

• Move to 3 shift operations

• Construction and launch of new Paint Plant

• Launch of new Li-Ion Battery Plant

• Elimination of Coal in Smyrna

• Frame-based product move to Canton, MS plant

• Expansion of Decherd plant (Mercedes engines)

• Global Funding for CO2 projects (from 1 to 3-yr payback)

SHIFT_ in opportunities technology improvements and economic change

Smyrna Electric Vehicle Battery Plant

Plant Design Features: • Reflective White Roof • Translucent Wall Panels For Daylight Harvesting • T5 fluorescent and LED lighting • Variable Frequency Drives • Heat Of Compression Compressed Air Dryers

Smyrna Coal Elimination Project

Information Construction: July 2012 – Feb 2013

Capital investment: $2.6M

Ann. Cost reduction: $1.13M (2.34yr ROI)

Ann. CO2 reduction: 14,400Mt (8.6% site)

Purpose

Reduce CO2 emission and achieve Nissan Green Program (NGP 2016)

Construction Area October 2012

CO2 coefficient

Coal 2.364 CO2-t/ton

Natural gas 0.545 CO2-t/MCF

• Theme: Connecting air handler VFD to the NEMAC controls.

• Reason: This allows the Central Utilities (cup) to adjust the hertz output to the blower motor in the air handler from the NEMAC screen as needed to save energy.

• Results: All 60 AHUs have been completed. 30 AHUs have 75HP motors and 4 AHUs have 40HP motors running at 46 Hz. These units were running at 55 Hz before.

• Energy Reduction: 1,310,000 kwh reduction • CO2: 553 metric ton reduction

Total Savings > $104,800

The Road Ahead So What’s Next - The Road Ahead…….

• CO2 Project Performance Tracking (3MIS)

• Energy Performance in Design / Energy Team Approval

• Expansion of ISO 50001 and SEP

• Involvement with suppliers and dealerships

• Employee Engagement / Green Team / Self-selected (Re-energize the team!!!)

• Metric for how team is working – What motivates people to participate?

• Spreading knowledge – need a platform
