Sustainability Analysis using Power BI

ABOUT THE COURSE 

The engineering and manufacturing sectors play a critical role in shaping our modern world, but they are also significant contributors to environmental degradation and resource depletion. As concerns about climate change, environmental pollution, and social responsibility continue to rise, there is an increasing need for these sectors to adopt sustainable practices that minimise their negative impacts on the environment and society. In this context, leveraging data analytics and visualisation tools like Power BI can be instrumental in driving sustainability initiatives in the engineering and manufacturing sectors.

According to the United Nations, industrial production accounts for 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions, with manufacturing alone accounting for approximately 21% of global CO2 emissions. In addition, producing and consuming goods result in significant waste generation, pollution, and resource depletion. These negative environmental impacts, combined with the increasing scrutiny from consumers, investors, and regulators, make sustainability a pressing issue for the engineering and manufacturing sectors.

Moreover, sustainability is not just about environmental concerns. It also encompasses social and economic aspects, such as fair labour practices, supply chain transparency, and community engagement. Many organisations realise that sustainability is a moral imperative and a strategic business opportunity. Companies prioritising sustainability are more likely to attract and retain customers, enhance their brand reputation, reduce risks, and achieve long-term profitability and resilience in a changing business landscape.

Power BI, as a powerful data analytics and visualisation tool, can play a crucial role in supporting sustainability initiatives in the engineering and manufacturing sectors. By leveraging Power BI, professionals in these sectors can gain valuable insights from their sustainability data, identify areas of improvement, and make data-driven decisions to drive sustainable practices.

This course will provide professionals in the engineering and manufacturing sectors with a comprehensive understanding of sustainability concepts and how to utilise Power BI for data analysis and reporting to support sustainability initiatives.
