Transforming Wisconsin into the Premier Sustainable Manufacturing Hub of the U.S.

The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) aims to make Wisconsin the most sustainable manufacturing state, enhancing profitability for small to midsize manufacturers (SMMs). Through strategic investments, the Profitable Sustainability Initiative (PSI) has yielded substantial returns: an average return on investment of 31:1 and $54 million in total economic impact over five years. Noteworthy achievements include substantial reductions in energy costs, waste, and emissions. As demand for fresh water intensifies worldwide, this initiative also addresses water stress, ensuring a sustainable future for industry and the environment.

  7. Input Cost vs Output Value Divergence Between 2000 and2010, the index of manufacturing energy costs rose more quickly than the value of shipments index (Figure WI -2). The average difference between these two series over the period is 19%. By 2010 Wisconsin manufacturing energy expenditures had increased by 35%, while the total value of shipments rose by 14%, relative to year 2000 levels.

  8. PSI Objective: Make WI the most sustainable manufacturing state in US, while capturing higher business profitability. Serve 50 Small to midsize manufacturers (SMMs) Result: • 31:1 ROI for every $ invested, Avg. B/E at 8 months • Results exceed expectations by wide margin • Over 90 SMMs in PSI Program, nearly twice original target • National model • Breaks the mold in perception of WI SMMs

  9. 5 year financial impacts for 90 Profitable Sustainability Initiative (PSI) projects currently underway or planned include: $26.9 million in savings  $23.5 million in increased/retained sales $3.6 million in investment $54 million total economic impact, over 5 years

  17. Shrinking Availability For the first time in history, the global demand for freshwater is overtaking its supply in many parts of the world. The U.N. predicts that by 2025, more than half of the countries in the world will be experiencing water stress or outright shortages.

  18. Water Stress Increasing • 1/3 world’s population lives in • countries with moderate-to-high water stress (defined by UN as water consumption that exceeds 10 percent of renewable freshwater resources) • By 2025, 1.8 billion could be living in regions of absolute water scarcity, with 2/3 living in water stress (UN) Source: World Water Council, 2012
