Energy Efficient Electric Motor Systems in New Member and Candidate Countries
Electric motor driven systems account for approximately 60%-70% of industrial electricity consumption in Europe. Numerous studies have shown the considerable potential for improvement of energy efficiency of these systems, but despite their huge technical and economic potential, these measures are often not implemented by industrial enterprises because of non-technical barriers. As reported in the EU Green Paper on Energy Efficiency of 22 June 2005, the annual improvement in energy efficiency in the 1990s was 1.4% per year, but this rate has declined since then and is now stationary at 0.5%, showing that current efforts are proving insufficient. Information, education and decision-support tools have been identified as important pillars of the mix of actions that have to be undertaken to overcome the above mentioned barriers and to achieve Success. Through the SAVE programme, the European Commission has developed a programme aimed at overcoming such barriers for electric motor driven systems: the Motor Challenge Programme (MCP). This paper describes 4EM-MCP project. 4EM-MCP is an extension of MCP, targeted to EU New Member and Candidates Countries; launched in January 2006 in Brussels, 4EM-MCP is 3 year project that focuses on disseminating, extending and applying MCP tools through national programmes, in this geographical area aiming to build capacity and to raise energy efficiency awareness of policy makers and industry.
