Abstract

The compatibility of dematerialization with economic growth is indispensable for the realization of a sustainable society, which involves the problem of how to improve eco-efficiency. Mitsubishi Electric Corporation has proposed an independent calculating method based on MET (M: Material = Effective utilization of resources; E: Energy = Effective use of energy; T = Toxicity = Prevention of emission of environmentally risky substances) currently being promoted as an example of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation's environmental activities regarding Factor X which is drawing attention as a management index of a product's environmental impact. Mitsubishi applied this calculation method to its products and unveiled their trial calculated values in December 20011. This paper describes the concept of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation's Factor X, the degree of performance improvement, the degree of reduction of environmental impact, the calculation method and examples
实现可持续社会的因子X指标评价方法及应用
要实现可持续社会,非物质化与经济增长的相容性是必不可少的,这涉及到如何提高生态效率的问题。三菱电机公司提出了一种基于MET (M: Material = Effective utilization of resources;E: Energy =有效利用能源;作为评价产品对环境的影响程度的管理指标,正在受到关注的三菱电机的环境活动“X因素”(T =毒性=防止对环境有害物质的排放)正在得到推广。三菱将这种计算方法应用于其产品,并于2011年12月公布了其试验计算值。本文介绍了三菱电机X因子的概念、绩效改善程度、环境影响减少程度、计算方法和实例
