Opportunities • From Bain & Company industry brief (2013) • A typical European/US manufacturing company can save between 10% and 30% of direct energy costs in 3 years • Indirect savings add another 50% (reduced waste, materials, maintenance) • Higher empoloyee motivation • Strengthened corporate reputation • Opportunity for growth through new products and new business models – help customers to become more energy efficient

  16. Challenges: • Energy Efficiency projects, costs for companies: In a moment of strict budget constraints → non-core projects like energy efficiency projects can be postponed as benefits from inventements may only be visible in the mid term. • Additional Challenges: • lack of visibility • integration of energy efficiency opportunities within corporate strategic and capital planning processes • Not stand alone: involvement of value chain: suppliers, employees, customers, local communities, regulators • Regulatory framework with clear long term direction & willingness
