Energy efficiency - EE-METAL

Applying Energy Efficient measures for metal and metalworking SMEs and industry

EE-METAL is highly consistent with specific challenge to increase energy efficiency and saving within associated companies.
For this reason, project sets up a number of solutions that correspond on a combination of various actions and tools. These actions consist of:

Energy Audit,
implementation of the ISO 50 001 Energy Management System standard,
implementation of the Energy Monitoring Systems (EMS/SCADA),
workshops & trainings,
international benchmarking.

General objective:
The overall objective of EE-METAL project is to encourage companies to identify cost-effective potential for delivering energy efficiency policies.
Additional figures to reach by the end of the project are:

Energy savings of 447,55 GWh in the first 3 years.
Investments in energy efficient technologies and renewable production of 54,20 M€.
Greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) not released of 110,56 ktCO₂.

Benefits for companies:

Metal and Metalworking SMEs will be hold to carry out energy efficiency measures in order to gain several benefits, mainly:

Obtaining important savings and investments in a short-term horizon;
Increasing competitiveness and energy performance;
Improving innovative technologies;
Ameliorating the industrial and manufacturing energy efficiency management;
Adopting innovative financial solutions.
