PROJECT DESCRIPTION
BACKGROUND
The Project aims to accelerate the transition of Agri-food EU industry towards a sustainable growth model by increasing the up taking of the recommended measures form Energy Audits, encouraging companies (C10 - C11) to undergo energy audits and the subsequent implementation of the recommendations from these audits, promoting digital solutions. The war in Ukraine threatens food security at global level. Furthermore, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the growing risk of EU overdependency on global supply chains for key goods and technologies produced by third countries. All of this adds to the existing pressure that climate change puts on our food production systems and requires us to continually mitigate and adapt to changes. To combat environmental pollution and create a more sustainable food sector, energy use during manufacturing needs to be reduced. AENEAM offers an acceleration program tailored to the involved companies with high impact mentoring, steady network immersion, energy audits, specialized workshops for Re-skilling and enhancing the skills of energy technicians to strategic proposition to improve their know-how, green impact strategy at corporate culture and communication, business plans, access to investors and public funding, plus a digital solutions seminars and demonstrations. This acceleration program serves as a capacity building, a systematic approach of knowledge and skills development to ensure that the companies have the internal expertise to effectively implement change and improve performance of the measures. Operational services will complete and guide the measures deployment at individual level for companies and through the Local Pilots (4 countries) as grouping companies for join solutions. AENEAM team is composed of several technicians from 4 EU countries ES FR, IT and PL combining experts on energy audits and measures implementation, and agri-food clusters and associations that will promote and support the activities developmt
