CSMT and AIB, in collaboration with the Association of engineers of Brescia, organize a workshop for professionals, industry experts and energy company technicians interested in exploring the theme of energy efficiency in industry of metals. The morning session is dedicated in particular to new regulations and funding opportunities; the afternoon session aims to explore the theme of energy benchmarks in steel mills and foundries, illustrating the benefits resulting from energy audits and by the mechanism of white certificates.
The workshop is organized in the framework of the European project EE-METAL: the project was launched in March 2016 and has a duration of 3 years, with the main goal to provide businesses with different tools (managerial, technical, financial and training) useful to overcome existing barriers to adopting energy saving measures. Thanks to the project the energy audits were conducted at 20 metalworking sector SMEs (according to UNI CEI EN 16247 from EGE UNI CEI 11339) whose results will be presented during the workshop.
