9. ISO 50001 and SEP Certifications
NNA-Smyrna received ISO 50001 and Superior Energy
Performance (SEP) Certifications in 2012.
 Became the first
passenger-vehicle
manufacturing facility
to attain ISO 50001 and
SEP certifications.
 Within 3 years of
establishing baseline,
the Smyrna plant
improved energy
performance by 7%.

10. The Road AheadHow Things Change in a Couple of Years…
• Move to 3 shift operations
• Construction and launch of new Paint Plant
• Launch of new Li-Ion Battery Plant
• Elimination of Coal in Smyrna
• Frame-based product move to Canton, MS plant
• Expansion of Decherd plant (Mercedes engines)
• Global Funding for CO2 projects (from 1 to 3-yr payback)
SHIFT_ in opportunities
technology improvements and economic change

14. Smyrna Coal Elimination Project
Information
Construction: July 2012 – Feb 2013
Capital investment: $2.6M
Ann. Cost reduction: $1.13M (2.34yr ROI)
Ann. CO2 reduction: 14,400Mt (8.6% site)
Purpose
Reduce CO2 emission and achieve
Nissan Green Program (NGP 2016)
Construction Area
October 2012
CO2 coefficient
Coal 2.364 CO2-t/ton
Natural gas 0.545 CO2-t/MCF

15. • Theme: Connecting air handler VFD to the NEMAC
controls.
• Reason: This allows the Central Utilities (cup) to adjust
the hertz output to the blower motor in the air handler
from the NEMAC screen as needed to save energy.
• Results: All 60 AHUs have been completed. 30 AHUs have
75HP motors and 4 AHUs have 40HP motors running at 46
Hz. These units were running at 55 Hz before.
• Energy Reduction: 1,310,000 kwh reduction
• CO2: 553 metric ton reduction

19. The Road AheadSo What’s Next -
The Road Ahead…….
• CO2 Project Performance Tracking (3MIS)
• Energy Performance in Design / Energy Team Approval
• Expansion of ISO 50001 and SEP
• Involvement with suppliers and dealerships
• Employee Engagement / Green Team / Self-selected
(Re-energize the team!!!)
• Metric for how team is working – What motivates people to
participate?
• Spreading knowledge – need a platform
