Energy Efficiency in Manufacturing-Perspectives from Australia and Europe
Over the last years，life cycle oriented concepts in manufacturing have been developed and introduced in research as well as in industrial practices (e.g.measures to improve energy efficiency in production)to foster sustainability.Since the implementation of these concepts depends on certain conditions and requirements， the question comes up whether the implementation is always successful in different regions of the world. Therefore this paper discusses and compares the specific conditions in Europe(specifically in Germany)and in Australia.Both regions significantly differ regaling basic aspects such as geography，climate， business as well as population，resource availability etc.In addition the paper also addresses the influence of these differentiating parameters and the specific potentials and challenges of to foster sustainability in manufacturing.
