“…KPIs are generally used by an organization in terms to evaluate their success and also the success of a particular effort which an individual or they are doing. Although success is sometimes defi ned in terms of making progress toward the expected goals or an event that accomplishes its intended purpose but often, success is simply the repeated achievement of some level of operational goal and workers it becomes all the more important to set strategic goals, so choosing the correct KPIs is directly dependent on gaining an understanding of what is important to the organization (Srivastava & Maitra, 2016).…”

“…Manufacturing industries today are focusing on controlling negative environmental impacts, reducing cost, conserving energy and natural resources while producing new products through various methods and tools of Sustainable manufacturing assessment. Singh and Sultan (2018) propose science-based guidelines for modelling and evaluation of key performance indicators (KPIs) in an aluminium extrusion process. The proposed methodology consists of the following main components: 1 identifi cation of key performance indicators 2) classifi cation of manufacturing processes on the basis of KPIs 3) evaluation of key performance indicators.…”

Currently, there is a dynamic and progressive growth of substitution labour by capital. The introduction of new technologies, digitization, and automation of production is referred to as the fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0. The initiative Industry 4.0 also causes changes in the labour market. Industry 4.0 should increase production effi ciency, increase work productivity, reduce costs, customize solutions, and increase business fl exibility. The higher effi ciency of production and automation will enable the implementation of sustainable development. These market changes bring with them the need to measure the effi ciency and performance of production and industry. Current performance indicators are insuffi ciently refl ected in dynamically changing market conditions. For this reason, more and more companies, as well as governments around

“…KPIs have been studied previously. Singh and Sultan [26] developed guidelines for evaluating sustainability KPIs (covering the environmental, economic and social aspects of sustainability) in the aluminium extrusion process. Singh and Sultan [27] formulated a mathematical model for evaluating sustainability indicators (amount of electricity use, fuel use, CO 2 emissions and solid wastage) and applied it to the extrusion of aluminium.…”

Taxonomy, Saving Potentials and Key Performance Indicators for Energy End-Use and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Aluminium Industry and Aluminium Casting Foundries

et al. 2021

Increasing energy efficiency within the industrial sector is one of the main approaches in order to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. The production and processing of aluminium is energy and greenhouse gas intensive. To make well-founded decisions regarding energy efficiency and greenhouse gas mitigating investments, it is necessary to have relevant key performance indicators and information about energy end-use. This paper develops a taxonomy and key performance indicators for energy end-use and greenhouse gas emissions in the aluminium industry and aluminium casting foundries. This taxonomy is applied to the Swedish aluminium industry and two foundries. Potentials for energy saving and greenhouse gas mitigation are estimated regarding static facility operation. Electrolysis in primary production is by far the largest energy using and greenhouse gas emitting process within the Swedish aluminium industry. Notably, almost half of the total greenhouse gas emissions from electrolysis comes from process-related emissions, while the other half comes from the use of electricity. In total, about 236 GWh/year (or 9.2% of the total energy use) and 5588–202,475 tonnes CO2eq/year can be saved in the Swedish aluminium industry and two aluminium casting foundries. The most important key performance indicators identified for energy end-use and greenhouse gas emissions are MWh/tonne product and tonne CO2-eq/tonne product. The most beneficial option would be to allocate energy use and greenhouse gas emissions to both the process or machine level and the product level, as this would give a more detailed picture of the company’s energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.
