Abstract
Value stream mapping is an effective tool of lean manufacturing to reduce the wastage in any process by segregating value added and non-value added activities. The present work uses the concept of value stream mapping and developed energy value stream mapping to address the non productive energy consuming processes. This paper focuses on achieving Green Manufacturing as overall productivity which has already reached an acceptable value. The main problem identified is that there is a void when it has been looked for a tool to achieve Lean Manufacturing along with Green manufacturing. It deals with the development of a method that allows a first quick, easy and comprehensive analysis of energy and material flows within the production processes. The paper concludes with discussing improvements in the processes.
