Title:
Achieving Pollution Prevention Success: Northern Illinois Regional Energy, Economy, and Environment Project
Abstract:
A 2015 Pollution Prevention (P2) Source Reduction Assistance Grant to the Illinois Sustainable Technology Center (ISTC), supported Energy, Economy, and Environment (E3) assessments at five facilities to identify opportunities for: energy, water and hazardous material conservation; waste reduction; and, greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions. ISTC along with Illinois Manufacturing Extension Center (IMEC), Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) and Nicor Gas combined expertise to provide comprehensive resources to assist Illinois industrial facilities in Cook and DuPage Counties. ISTC incorporated IMEC's Lean and Clean, Waste to Profit and Green Supplier Network models into the E3 process to augment their P2 program.
