Leading business towards climate neutrality by speeding up the uptake of energy efficiency measures from the energy audits

Reference: LIFE21-CET-AUDITS-AUDIT2MEASURE/101075785 | Acronym: LIFE21-CET-AUDITS-AUDIT2MEASURE

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

BACKGROUND

Industry is a key player in energy consumption and economic impact in the European Union (EU) and energy audits represent an important tool to improve energy efficiency in the sector; despite both the spread of energy audits and the knowledge of their benefits, the actual implementation rate of the Energy Savings Measures (ESM) proposed by energy audits is relatively low. The main aim of the AUDIT-TO-MEASURE (Leading business towards climate neutrality by speeding up the uptake of energy efficiency measures from the energy audits) project is to support companies in the uptake of audits measures necessary to reduce the energy consumption supporting their energy transition. AUDIT-TO-MEASURE will develop and implement a new engagement strategy (called “Audit2Action”) to put into action the opportunities emerging from energy audits. To this aim, in the first part of the project, barriers to the adoption of energy saving measures will be identified and subsequently solutions to overcome these barriers will be developed by understanding decision making processes in companies andhow important energy efficiency is in their organizations; possible supporting mechanisms for the implementation of ESM will also be considered. After that, the project will develop a capacity building program to motivate both the professionals of the involved companies towards improving energy efficiency and to increase their capacity of to implement the energy audit outcomes. Finally, the project will assist a series of engaged companies to implement selected measures in the field in order to test the results of the “Audit2Action” strategy. A Knowledge Exchange Space (KES) will be created to ensure sustainability, replication and exploitation of results also after the end of the project. AUDIT-TO-MEASURE is characterised by its approach to result in action, thereby it has two main advantages: the development of a new methodology for adoption of energy audits and its application to improve energy efficiency in the EU’s industrial sector
