 | Balanced Scorecard Holistic evaluation of process concepts for electroorganic and electrocatalytic syntheses in the form of a balanced scorecard |
Motivation: An early provision of a comparative evaluation of the process/ product idea in a standardized manner provides support for both feasibility studies and development of marketing and knowledge transfer. Usually, such information is supplied by large companies or strategy consulting organizations. Therefore, the establishment of an independent holistic evaluation of the process concepts within ETOS is of particular importance, since all evaluation results can be made available to the consortium in an easily visible, and clearly legible manner while reducing coordination efforts.
Aims und methodology: In cooperation with all research partners, Balanced Scorecard aims to develop and apply a standard for a structured, holistic evaluation of the projects. The basis for the evaluation methodology to be developed is a set of fundamental data (e.g., energy and raw material costs, investment costs for process and system modules), which will be will be agreed upon by the ETOS consortium and included as boundary conditions in the holistic evaluation in the form of key indicators. The evaluation methodology will be made available to the consortium; in consultation with the idea owners, it can also be used for publications.
Having the form of a "balanced scorecard", this project ensures a qualitative and quantitative evaluation and monitoring of process concepts by considering relevant evaluation criteria for the ETOS consortium, such as energy, raw materials, amounts of materials in the cycle, capital, and impact on livelihoods.
Innovations and perspectives: The development of evaluation schemes and the provision of techno-economic-ecological assessments of new process technologies represent a valuable contribution to the academic and industrial parties within the framework. In this way, both the development / expansion of ETOS' research portfolio and the technological transfer measures of the research cluster are supported.
