Energy efficiency

In the European Union, the industrial sector accounts for over 27 per cent of final energy use. In Germany this percentage is as high as 57 per cent (Eurostat, May 2009).

Technological advances and optimisation of the energy use in industrial systems are leading to the across-the-board benefits in lessening environmental impact and cost savings. Manufacturing remains one of the main drivers in ensuring for a sustainable energy future of the European Union.
