Synergies with other Actions

Synergies & Collaborations

On the one hand, synergies co-benefits and spill-over effects from EENOVA to other LIFE-sub programmes and projects are indirectly given through either the connection of energy efficiency and renewable energy to e.g.,“Circular Economy and Quality of Life” or “Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation” and the given cross-objectives that several subprograms address.

On the other hand, EENOVA seeks to engage proactively with other EU funded projects and initiatives to exchange tools, knowledge and collaborate on outreach and dissemination efforts. We have created an informal network of LIFE-funded projects focused on the food sector and value chains, starting off with the projects presented below.

If you want to join the network, don’t hesitate to contact us, by writing to claire.chretien@ee-ip.org/ and harald.grill@conplusultra.com.

BOOST Project EU

BOOSTing agribusiness acceleration and digital hub networking by an advanced training program on sustainable Precision Agriculture.

KNOWnNEBs Project

KNOWnNEBs aims to integrate non-energy benefits into energy audit practices to accelerate the uptake of recommended measures. #EUResearch

EE4Horeca

LIFE EE4HoReCa is on a mission to improve #EnergyEfficiency in the HORECA sector by raising awareness & promoting renewable energy

AENEAM

The AENEAM project aims to accelerate the transition of the EU agri-food industry towards a sustainable growth model by increasing the uptake of recommended measures from energy audits.

Multiple Benefits of Energy efficiency

The Multiple Benefits project concluded in 2021. All materials and reports are available in the Library. Key findings and outcomes are summarised here.

FAIRCHAIN Project

FAIRCHAIN, an EU-funded project (2021-2024) testing innovations to build sustainable intermediate food value chains

AuditPlus Project

Enhancing energy audit schemes in Energy Intensive Industries. LIFE-CET-22 Audit Plus project helps EII with pilot implementation in Ireland, Spain and Poland.

Energy Efficiency 4SMEs

Enhancing energy audit schemes in Energy Intensive Industries. LIFE-CET-22 Audit Plus project helps EII with pilot implementation in Ireland, Spain and Poland.

BETTED

Project aims to facilitate companies (especially small and medium, SMEs) belonging to supply chains in the dairy sector to foster the market uptake of energy efficiency measures including the use of renewables and the deployment of heat pumps at the value chain level.

DEESME2050

DEESME 2050 builds on the developed DEESME multiple benefits approach to capacitate, assist and motivate companies to overcome the obstacles in energy efficiency measures uptake in the furniture sector and its value chain, mainly in Bulgaria, France, Italy and Poland.
