The power of energy cooperation

Although industry accounts for 25 % of Europe’s energy demand, only 16 % of this demand is met using renewables.

By focusing on collective measures and clustering, the R-ACES project aims to exponentially increase the industrial sector’s energy efficiency. To do so, it’s working to turn high-potential industrial parks and clusters into fully fledged ecoregions. By encouraging the exchange of surplus energy, making extensive use of renewables, and facilitating cooperation using a smart energy management system and other tools, the project is confident these newly established ecoregions can reduce emissions by at least 10 %.
