SUMMARY:Digital Event - Industrial Efficiency 2020; Decarbonise Industry
DESCRIPTION:Time is running out to avert catastrophic consequences from global warming. Following IPCC’s wake-up call\, bold and decisive action is needed now. With a third of global final energy consumption\, industry has a key role in the transition ahead. \nRegardless of the end-use sector\, energy efficiency is key to decarbonisation\, productivity gains\, energy security\, improved competitiveness and socio-economic benefits. Efficiency improvements also reduce costs associated with maintenance\, production stand-still and insurance fees. And\, importantly\, this will have positive employment benefits throughout the economy. \nFast decarbonisation key challenge \nThe decarbonisation of industry presents a formidable challenge. In a few sectors\, such as iron and steel\, new carbon-free processes may lead to more electricity being used. Just going for renewables is not enough. By increasing efficiency across all sectors and end-uses we can free up resources to make this transition affordable and manageable. \nLooking beyond carbon and energy \nIndustrial Efficiency 2020 will explore current and emerging trends in industry\, such as new business models\, digitalisation\, industry 4.0\, the circular economy and resource efficiency\, and discuss the significance of these trends for delivering decarbonisation. The multiple benefits of energy efficiency are of particular interest. \nSix panels on accelerating the decarbonisation \nAll presentations by participants are based on an abstract submission for any of the following six panels (for a complete description of the panels and presentation of the panel leaders\, see the panels and theme pages). \nPolicies and programmes to drive transformation\nSustainable production towards a circular economy\nEnergy management – in real life\nTechnology\, processes and systems\nBusiness models\, finance and investment\nDeep decarbonisation of industry \nA vibrant and proud industry and harbour city \nThis event was planned to take place in Gothenburg\, on the west coast of Sweden. It is a proud and vibrant industrial and harbour city\, traditionally open to the rest of the world. It is the hometown of several of Sweden’s world-famous manufacturing companies such as Volvo and SKF.\nDespite the event going digital\, eceee keep working with Gotheburg-based Chalmers Industriteknik and Chalmers University of Technology. Chalmers Industriteknik is a consulting company in industrial energy\, materials\, design and circular economy with its roots in Chalmers University. \nCompact format and mixed presentations \nFormal panel presentations of either peer-reviewed papers or extended abstracts (without accompanying paper) will be offered in two sessions mid-day to accommodate for parrticipants in other time zones. \nWe welcome you to four days packed with presentations.

SUMMARY:Smart Food Factory Online Conference & Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:By 2050\, the world population is expected to be 9 billion people. The combination of richer diets and increased population means that food production will have to be doubled in the next 30 years. Today’s Food and Beverage manufacturing facilities are held to extremely strict standards that are being met and regulated through automation. There is also consistent pressure from competition to improve product nutrition\, taste\, and integrity – all while keeping pricing low and food safe. Achieving efficiency\, keeping costs low and maintaining quality is the balance that leads to success. \nThis online conference and exhibition\, which will beheld on 10th of September\, will investigate what future food factories will look like and how current issues should be addressed to realise this vision. \nThe event will include speakers on the following areas: \n\nFactory design and equipment of the future\nRecipe Management\nIndustry 4.0\nDigitisation\nEngineering / Automation / Robotics\nInformation Technology\nFuture manufacturing practices\nCooking\, Chilling & Freezing\nSupply Chain Optimisation\nLean & Continuous Improvement\nTraceability\nPackaging Machinery & Materials\nMaterials Handling\nSustainability – Water – Energy – Waste\nLaboratory Technology

SUMMARY:Carbon Online Conference & Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:About this Event\n\n\nThe challenge of closing the gap to our 2030 target\, coupled with the broader policy objective of long-term decarbonisation across all sectors of the economy\, requires both public and private investment and large societal shifts in technology\, attitudes and behaviour\, at an unprecedented pace. Specifically\, Ireland requires a change in its overall emissions trajectory of the order of a 2% decline each year from 2021 to 2030 to meet our EU targets. \nTo meet the required level of emissions reduction\, by 2030 the Government will implement a carbon tax rate of at least €80 per tonne by 2030\, accompanied by a trajectory of increases over successive annual Budgets. Carbon pricing will have a key role to play in the transition to a low-carbon economy and has been recognised by the Climate Change Advisory Council as an important tool for Ireland to achieve its long-term decarbonisation objectives in a cost-effective manner by 2050. \nThe Journey to 2030 and 2050 An important factor in choosing policies to deliver the 2% per annum reduction is a realisation that in the period between 2030 and 2050\, a much steeper decline of 7% per annum will have to be achieved based on achieving a minimum 80% emissions reduction by 2050\, relative to 1990. One important implication of this for the period to 2030 is to ensure that all investment choices make sense in terms of decarbonising by 2050\, and we avoid creating stranded assets by choosing what may appear to be cheaper options in terms of our 2030 decarbonisation goal.

SUMMARY:LBI July Series Discussion 2: Managing Peak Demand
DESCRIPTION:How Lean Principles Supported An Post Manage Increased Christmas Demand\nMany companies face peak demand issues requiring redeployment and hiring of temporary employees to meet seasonal demands\, none more so than An Post. The Leading Edge Group were commissioned to review and put in place a structure and plan to manage the 2019 Peak which was estimated to increase dramatically from the previous year with significant volumes forecasted by one of their key customers\, Amazon. Lean principles were deployed such as value stream design mapping\, standard work and demand/capacity modelling to identify constraints and inefficiencies and to allow the operating units to align capacity well in advance. This also allowed Sales to provide feedback to customers in terms of effective capacity and service levels and therefore manage the expected demand inflows. More effective operating layouts and flow management processes were also developed so that product status was highly visual and further improvement opportunities were easy to identify and execute. The success of the project was enabled by high levels of teamwork and communication\, supported by daily huddles and weekly KPI meetings which were rigorously attended by all the key stakeholders. The result was that An Post delivered a 100% increase in Parcel volumes which continued through further demand spikes resulting from COVID-19. \n  \nPanellists: \n\nPat Cullinane\, Transformation Consultant\, Leading Edge Group\nDavid Murray\, Head of Mails Operational Excellence\, An Post\n\n  \nAs this is an online panel discussion\, please: \n\nMute your microphone. If you are calling from a smartphone you will see the mic symbol or press *6 after you dial in;\nUse the chat function in Zoom to ask questions or email Senan.ORiain@ida.ie before or during the call;\nPlease note that this is a Zoom Call\, so places are limited and priority will be given to industry reps;\nA Waitlist will be set up if demand requires\, the event will be broadcast live on YouTube\, a link will be made available at 6.15pm to everybody on the Waitlist;\nA recording will be made available afterwards.\n\n  \nPlease check www.LeanBusinessIreland.ie for further details and Join Your local Lean Regional Network!

SUMMARY:Webinar: Fossil Fuel Lock-in in Ireland — How Much Value is at Risk?
DESCRIPTION:Fossil fuel lock-in refers to the idea that countries are locked-in to carbon or fossil fuel energy systems because they have invested heavily in the infrastructure of that energy system. Stakeholders in the finance and banking industries\, including central banks\, regulators and credit rating agencies\, have warned of the financial risk associated with being locked into fossil energy systems and have called for collective action to facilitate the role of the financial sector in achieving the Paris Agreement objectives of “making finance flows consistent with pathways towards low greenhouse gas emissions and climate resilient development”. \nRecent research on this topic has been carried out by a group from UCC\, led by Dr Celine McInerney\, and a report on this work was published by the EPA last year. The research found that as the cost of renewable technologies continues to fall\, fossil assets become less competitive and profits for fossil generators are reduced. Under decarbonisation scenarios\, returns to investors in fossil assets and related infrastructure may not be sufficient to incentivise investment. \nPresented by Professor Celine McInerney \nThis series is organised by the RIA Climate Change and Environmental Sciences Committee in collaboration with the EPA.

SUMMARY:Water Innovation Europe 2020
DESCRIPTION:DIGITAL INNOVATIVE WATER WEEK \nIn 2050 Europe aims to be the world’s first climate-neutral continent implementing the European Green Deal: an ambitious package of measures to deeply transform our economy and society. In the meantime\, the wake-up call of the COVID-19 crisis deeply reinforced this necessity for Europe to a new paradigm towards a Water-Smart Society\, from crisis management to risk management and prevention in Europe and beyond. \nPollution and viruses do not stop at our boundaries and are not an issue of a single sector only. One trillion of the European budget will have to contribute to the ecological transition\, particularly through emission reduction. \nAs water is a cross-sectoral and strategic resource\, water security should be a prerequisite to make the green deal a success. We need investment in innovative solutions to achieve a Water Smart Society which fully considers the true value of water. Europe’s leadership has already demonstrated its positive impact in Europe and beyond to support green growth\, find sustainable solutions and strengthen its position on the world market. \nResearch and innovation along the full value chain in the water sector can still go steps further: \n\nHow can water enable European society to prevent crises\, ensure resiliency and reboot our economy after and beyond the COVID19 crisis?\nHow could we make sure that water efficiency gains at an individual level are translated into long-term water security in a context of climate change adaptation?\nHow to fuel research\, technological development\, and wider sectoral policy coordination to tackle urgent global water and food systems challenges?\nHow to halt the loss of aquatic biodiversity through 2030 through inclusive models gathering the public sector\, the private sector and civil society?\nHow to move away from conventional\, linear approaches to tackle water quality deterioration\, towards circularity and industrial symbiosis?\n\nJoin the WIE2020 digital edition to get answers to these questions\, gain new insights\, debate and discuss!

SUMMARY:Webinar: Maximise Energy Savings with CO2 Heat Pumps (CPD)
DESCRIPTION:The sustainable concept behind CO2 Heat Pumps is to use freely available energy from the environment or waste energy from one process to feed another. \nThe heat (or cold) energy released by a process or a building\, which would normally be dumped into the atmosphere\, is instead used to heat (or cool) a different process or area. \nJoin our live Heat Pump Webinar to see case studies and learn more about the efficiencies of combined heating and cooling with CO2 Heat Pumps and the environmental benefits of using CO2 as a refrigerant.
