Ecofys Shows the potential of energetic efficiency in the industrial isolations
5 July 2012
The report communicated to world-wide level by the two organisations and through the big companies linked to the project of the EiiF, as it is the case of Armacell, shows that this potential does not explode although his implementation is profitable. In fact, the European industry suffers energetic and economic losses daily, producing unnecessarily tonnes of broadcasts of CO2. Kornelis Blok, scientific director in Ecofys, affirms that “they can take advantage of almost two thirds of the potential of energetic saving and of CO2 simply with a better maintenance and an effective isolation in the industrial applications”. Blok Underlines that “this supposes a big commercial opportunity, since the investments in isolation are used to rentabilizarse in less than a year”.
Some data put in evidence the significant of the results of the study: the potential of energetic saving total of 620 PJ equivale to the energetic consumption of ten million homes, and the potential of reductions of CO2 49 annual tonnes equivale to the broadcasts of CO2 of 18 million trucks.
