Energy management messages to UK industry

Edited by the Processingtalk editorial team May 5, 2006

This food and drink seminar programme will provide information on how to use energy more efficiently, with presentations being made by some of the leading names in the field of energy management

With energy costs approaching record highs and the spectre of yet further increases over the coming years, industry at large is now faced with some difficult challenges.

From shop floor to boardroom, manufacturing and engineering businesses are having to closely evaluate their energy management practices.

In recognition of this fact, Datateam Publishing, with its seven strong 'industrial portfolio' of market leading publications, has joined forces with The Carbon Trust to present a series of industry-specific events and publications, which will be structured to present the key 'best practice' energy management messages to UK industry.

The first event will focus on the food and drink sector, which has been identified by the Carbon Trust as one of the most important industrial sectors in terms of energy use.

In 2000, this sector consumed some 4,300,000 TOE, making it the fourth highest energy user (after iron and steel, engineering and chemicals) and as such a key target for energy reduction measures.

The food and drink seminar programme starts this series of events and will take place on Wednesday 14th June 2006, at the National Motorcycle Museum, Birmingham U, and will provide much needed information on how to use energy more efficiently in this sector.

Presentations will be made by some of the leading names in the field of energy management including; The Carbon Trust, The Energy Efficiency Accreditation Scheme/The National Energy Foundation, ABB, Micronics and Switch2 Energy Solutions, Team Energy (Energy Auditing Agency), Trend Controls, Baldor UK, Flir Systems, and The British Compressed Air Society.

Aimed specifically at individuals working within the food and drink sector, this seminar will provide all levels of engineers and management with comprehensive information on how to use energy more efficiently, and in doing so, reduce costs and improve overall profitability.

The presentations will provide practical information, and as such will equip all delegates with the right information to effectively implement the latest energy saving initiatives.

By condensing the presentations into just one day, these events offer a truly cost-effective way to obtain the very latest information on this hugely important subject.
