Sustainability Practices in Engineering Management: Implementing Green Engineering Solutions in Project Planning

EasyChair Preprint 14987

Abstract

The growing emphasis on sustainable development has prompted engineering management to integrate green engineering solutions into project planning and execution. This paper explores the role of sustainability practices in engineering management, focusing on the adoption of environmentally conscious strategies to reduce carbon footprints, enhance energy efficiency, and promote resource conservation. Through case studies of successful green engineering projects, the paper identifies key methodologies, including life cycle assessments, renewable energy integration, and waste reduction techniques, as essential to sustainable engineering. Furthermore, it examines the economic and social benefits of sustainable practices, highlighting how they align with long-term project goals. The findings underscore the need for engineering managers to prioritize sustainability by incorporating green technologies, fostering collaboration among stakeholders, and adhering to evolving environmental regulations to ensure that project outcomes are both profitable and ecologically responsible.
