First published here We know that there is a massive potential for cost effective energy efficiency in nearly all, well all in fact, sectors and situations. Study after study in many countries and…

First published here Glass production is a highly energy-intensive industrial process. The container and flat glass industries (which combined account for 80% of glass production) emit over 60 million…

A technique based on the principles of MRI and NMR has allowed researchers to observe not only how next-generation batteries for large-scale energy storage work, but also how they fail, which will…

Author: Edd Gent While solar and wind power are rapidly becoming cost-competitive with fossil fuels in areas with lots of sun and wind , they still can’t provide the 24/7 power we’ve become used to.…

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), electric motor systems consume more than half of global electricity. Industrial electric motor systems account for over 70% of total global…

Why do so many energy efficiency projects struggle to gain traction—even when the math says they should pay off? The answer, according to the M-Benefits project and leading European researchers, is…

Bioenergy plays a key role in decarbonisation and straddles multiple industrial ecosystems. Innovative bioenergy use, coupled with digitalisation, facilitates the decarbonisation of a wide range of industrial sectors including steel, pulp and paper,…

The Power of Small Businesses in Europe's Energy Landscape Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of Europe's economy, accounting for 98.9% of all businesses. While individually…

The pulp and paper industry accounted for approximately 5 percent of total industrial final energy consumption and 2 percent of direct carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the industrial sector…

Building on the results of 7 EU-funded projects*, this session provides guidelines and good practice to implement energy efficiency solutions and to facilitate the energy transition. SMEs have a high untapped energy saving potential which can be…
