Environmental Pragmatism:The Key to “Moving Forward” Bob Wade

Corporate ManagerEnvironmental, Hazmat &

Safety

1. Continuing regulatory, political and public pressures to reduce emissions and carbon footprint

2. Toyota’s environmental program – going beyond compliance

3. How to “Move Forward” and achieve results in today’s reality

Presentation Overview

Public Opinion Context

Continuing public concern and pressure to address global climate change . . .

despite lack of major progress at Copenhagen.

Personal Stakes are High

Regulatory Context

• Continued focus at the Federal and state levels on addressing emissions and GHG reductions

• EPA decision to grant California waiver for GHG emission standards for motor vehicles . . . soon 2016 and beyond

• Possible Federal climate change legislation• CARB diesel emission reduction programs, spanning:

– On-road vehicles (trucks, buses, etc.)– Off-road vehicles and equipment (locomotives,

tractors, cargo handling equipment, etc.)– Marine vessels (harbor craft, ocean vessels, shore

power)– Stationary engines & portable equipment

6. Cooperation with Society

• Set goals & targets

• Report annual results

2009 NA Report Results

• Exceeded CAFE

• 25% less energy use - TMS

• 90% recycling rate at TLS

• Logistics GHG reduction

Today’s Challenge

How do we achieve further environmental gains in today’s

regulatory and economic climate- and –

at the same time, avoid undue burden and cost impacts on shipping?

Answer

“Environmental Pragmatism”

“Environmental Pragmatism”

Recipe

“Short-Term Small” + “Long-Term Large” + Common Sense

“Short-Term Small”

• Identify small investments and process changes that have short-term ROI and achieve environmental goals

• String them together to maximize return

Example #1 – Fuel Efficiency Initiative

Toyota Transport TQPE TEMA

• Post MPG• 18 trailers w/skirts• Governed Speed

• Driver Incentive (Post MPG)• Governed Speed• 2 trailers w/skirts• 2 trailers w/Nose cone

• MPG target for fuel surcharge calculation (6.3 mpg 6.53 in FY10)

$274,658 $ 188,764 $2.3M

A cross-affiliate team from service parts, completed vehicle logistics and manufacturing parts logistics developed some 19 separate initiatives to reduce fuel costs

Annualized Savings = $2.76M + GHG & Emissions Reductions

Toyota Transport - Governed Speed

Speed reduction of 5mph 68mph to 63 mph

Unit cost: $15 – labor

Launch date: July 08

MPG gain: 2.97%

ROI: < 1 week

Savings/Yr.: $1,258/truck

44 trucks: $55,352/yr.

Service Parts - Driver Incentive

Driver Incentive Program .5mpg Increase

Unit cost: $7,000 max

Launch date: April 09

MPG gain: .575mpg Q2

ROI: 2 weeks

Savings/Yr.: $138K/yr.

Example #2 – Service Parts Truck Efficiency Kaizen

• Through route kaizen & increased cube efficiency, TMS reduced miles traveled to deliver service parts and accessories by 2.5M miles over the previous year.

“Long-Term Large”

• Patient investment – facilities, equipment and process changes

• Longer-term plans and expectations• No instant ROI – but perhaps greater

long-term return

“Long-Term Large”NAPCC Rooftop Solar

“Long-Term Large” BenefitsNAPCC Rooftop Solar

• 2.3 megawatt solar roof array – second largest in North America

• No upfront capital costs• Generates 58% of NAPCC

electricity requirements• Prevents 2.4 million

pounds of CO2 annually• Annual utility cost

savings of $360K annually

Application to Port Operations

• Led by the Ports of LA and Long Beach – greater emphasis on environment

• Some requirements – like cold-ironing, stack sock, vessel retrofits – are very costly and sometimes impractical

• There may well be better, more practical and more cost-effective solutions!!

Conclusion

• These are challenging times on the economic and regulatory fronts

• The key to “Moving Forward” in achieving environmental goals without creating undue financial burdens on shipping will require . . .
