ENERGY SAVING IN INDUSTRIAL SYSTEM APPLYING LEAN PRODUCTION
The article offers an innovative approach of enterprise’s cost minimization for electricity by implementation of lean production’s principles. The main principles of pull production are presented. It is described the necessity of pull system as an element that provides rational distribution of all production resources. The main wastes due to overproduction, extra processing and waiting are determined by means of value engineering’s flow map through the example of workshop’s operational area. The main tools of lean production are determined. Usage of these tools provides energy cost reduction and elimination of wastes on the factory floor. Actuality of energy consumption’s reducing is conditioned by tough sanctions restrictions and by response actions of our country. In frames of Import Substitution program it is proposed a variant of resource economy as the main element for allocating supplies by production diversification and development of new import-substituting products. Economic benefits of lean production’s implementation can be used as resources for development of new products or buildup of production capacity. Production system improving will allow enterprises entering new markets.
