R-ACES Ecoregion Meetings #4

Share

Join us for the final inspirational online seminar series on how to initiate energy cooperation projects on industrial
sites and business parks. Industrial sites and business parks play a key role in the energy transition: They have the potential to become hubs of energy flows for the entire region around them. However, initiating energy cooperation projects is often easier said than done.

During our four thematic online seminars, experts share their stories on how they realized energy
cooperation projects in their region. So, tune in and get inspired!

30 September 2021 – Innovative and sustainable energy systems
27 January 2022 – Starting energy communities

07 June 2022 – Benefit of energy cooperation for SMEs

The industry sector represents 25% of all energy demandin Europe– and 50% of the total cooling and
heating demand on the continent; yet only 16% comes from renewables. Through energy cooperation
R-ACEs supports Ecoregion to reduce their emissions by at leadt 10%.

7 June 2022 – Energy efficiency in SMEs benefits all! Rising Energy Costs – Energy Cooperation Helps SMEs!

Studies show that companies investing in energy-efficient, low-emission technologies have excellent growth prospects. The drivers and users of efficient technologies are often small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). They are a key innovation driver and an important interface for transferring research findings from academia to business. Increasing energy efficiency in industrial SMEs brings benefits to a wide range of stakeholders.

General energy prices are rising due to a series of international events. For SMEs this means that they see their energy bills double or even triple. Energy cooperation could lower the use of energy and thus save money. R-ACES developed several tools to make energy cooperation easily accessible. The foruth RERA Meeting is shocasing examples how SMEs can benefit from energy cooperation projects to lower the energy costs.

The meeting will be hosted by Nathan Bowden (ISPT)
