RECPC presents ‘Guide to Industrial Resource Efficiency’

The scaling up of the resource efficient economy has become a trend for developed countries. The European Commission launched its ‘Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe’ and the ‘EU Action Plan for the Circular Economy’ in 2015. In the meantime average resource productivity in Europe has increased by a factor of 1.5, from 1.47 to 2.08 euros/kg, between 2000 and 2016.

The above has been the theme of a recent press-conference held at the Interfax-Ukraine news agency within the EU Green Growth Platform. Igor Shilovich, Director of the Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production Centre (RECPC), Vyacheslav Potapenko, Director of the Institute of Green Economy, Andrei Vorfolomeyev, Deputy National Coordinator for Demonstration RECP Component under the “Greening Economies in the European Union's Eastern Neighbourhood” (EaP GREEN) programme, and Taras Sakalosh, RECPC Managing Director, presented the ‘Guide to Industrial Resource Efficiency‘.

Crafted within the framework of the EU Green Growth Platform, the guide is mainly designed to solve the problem of limited access to cutting-edge technologies and modern methods for improving production. This problem is relevant to most Ukrainian enterprises. The contents of the guide cover the methods and tools that help reduce energy intensity in industry by implementing even low-cost measures. In addition, the guide gives its readers insight into the case studies of resource efficient options implemented at national companies.
