Energy Efficiency

The article discusses the application of the soft systems model to industrial decarbonisation, emphasizing 'contextual evaluation'. This approach examines how decarbonisation measures align with an organization's broader policies and strategies. It involves assessing technical, financial, and contextual aspects to generate new ideas and requires thinking beyond conventional energy management boundaries.

Alufluor collaborated with the EU's iWAYS project to optimize resource recovery, focusing on reducing emissions and recycling. The initiative introduced technologies to conserve water and energy. The partnership aims to enhance sustainability in European industries without compromising economic progress.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Estamos no alvorecer de uma nova era industrial - a era da produção de tecnologia de energia limpa. A indústria europeia está a ser chamada a desempenhar um papel fundamental no cumprimento dos nossos objectivos climáticos e energéticos a longo prazo.
