Energy Efficiency

Worldwide, electric motor systems consume about 10,700 TWh annually worldwide and were responsible for 53% of the global electric energy consumption in 2016. This corresponds to approximately the combined electricity consumption of China. Digitalization technologies for electric motor driven systems will have a significant impact on the motor systems industry, offering vast potential for improvements in performance, efficiency, and cost.

The market for energy efficient pump systems in industry is expected to reach $16.3 billion by 2025. The market is highly competitive, with a number of companies offering a wide range of products and services.

In the EU alone, more than 70% of heating and cooling is generated from fossil fuels. In principle, industry can rather easily decarbonize their electricity consumption, just buy green electricity. The real challenge is how to decarbonise industrial heat.

Biomass plays a crucial role in the production of zero-carbon heat and electricity. The future of biomass in industrial applications remains promising. Some industries, such as the cement industry, have already invested heavily in adapting their processes to use biomass.

Next week sees the start of the EU Sustainable Energy Week 2023 in Brussels. The RE4Industry project uses this flagship event to showcase its amazing results and has developed a fun-learn mobile quiz: 5 questions, 45 seconds, fastest 25 daily winner get a nice price.

District heating companies are serving both energy supplier and end-user. Rising energy prices and carbon targets mean it is no longer sustainable or affordable to run our district heating systems on gas.

We are looking for a project manager for our EU Project office. EEIP is a neutral, open and global business and policy platform for the energy transition. Founded in 2011, we are serving more than 150.000 users.

We are at the dawn of a new industrial age - the age of clean energy technology manufacturing. Europes industry is being called to play a key role in meeting our long-term climate and energy objectives.

There were 180 million heat pumps operational worldwide in 2020. That number needs to rise to 600 million by 2030 to be on track to meet a goal of net zero emissions by 2050. The EU is a recognised technology leader in heat pumps.
