Boosting energy savings in industry and the service sector by accelerating replacement of old and inefficient electric motors
Brussels and online - March 11, 2025
EU-MORE is an acronym for EUropean MOtor REnovation initiative.
This LIFE-Project aims to speed up the replacement of old and inefficient electric motors in industry and the service sector through the development of policy recommendations and an impact analysis tool that can assist Member States in fulfilling their obligations under the Energy Efficiency Directive and in their transition to a circular economy.
Join us in interactive conversations about effective policymaking aimed at enhancing energy savings in the industrial and service sectors. We will explore future perspectives and potential pathways based on our project’s findings.
