Energy Efficiency Improvement Scopes Analysis in the Jute Processing Industry of Bangladesh

ABSTRACT

Energy efficiency improvement and energy saving are major industrial concerns now-a-days. This paper mainly aims at focusing key issues for reducing energy wastage and subsequent reduction of excessive energy consumption due to inefficient machinery and unplanned electrical system. In order to improve the energy consumption pattern, particularly jute processing industry of Bangladesh is considered as case study; several energy saving scopes and way of improvement have been identified.  The objective is to addresses utilization strategy through mathematical analysis to maximize machine efficiency leads to greater production, financial profit by reduction of energy bill as well as trapping carbon emission. In addition, to attain the target of improving energy efficiency of Bangladesh Government’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), this strategy can contribute by decarbonizing industrial operation and supply chains thorough improved energy efficiency. Also tend to reduce the carbon footprint of jute products, services and processes. This leads to setting ambitious emissions reductions targets in line with development of green industry; also scaling up potential investment scope as Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects in the development of innovative low-carbon products and services.
