The energy flow model is the basis for the emission calculation it links all energy related elements like energy carriers, energy source, facilities with the resources replicate from the ERP system.
Modeling Energy Flows
Objectives
After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
- Model the energy flows in your production to define the allocation of monthly energy consumption to the manufactured products
Models of Energy Flows
Model Energy Flow
The energy flow model forms the basis of, and links all the elements that are relevant for, the emission calculation. It consists of various elements that are combined to the energy flow model of a company.
All these elements can be fully modeled in SAP Sustainability Footprint Management, and when coupled with the ERP resource data is pulled from your company’s backend system, this enables you to calculate your company’s complete carbon footprint.
Earlier you learned how the master data came into the system. Now you see how the other entities relevant for the emission calculation are used in the Sustainability Footprint Management. Those are in this case the external energy sources, meters, a cooling system, and the warehouse.
