the Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Germany join forces in the Energy Transition
How can Asset Management contribute to increasing sustainability and energy efficiency? Sustainable Asset Management can be a valuable tool in this regard. To achieve this, especially with/by/for the Manufacturing industry, an international Western European consortium has established the MORE4Sustainability project.
This collaboration involves the Netherlands (NVDO), Belgium (Bemas), Germany (FVI), and France (EMC2). The project is led by Bemas and coordinated in partnership with Mainnovation.
The project consists of several phases and begins with a unique benchmarking study. At least 200 companies from Western Europe, particularly from the Manufacturing sector, such as Oil and Gas, Paper and Pulp, the Food Industry, and other industries, will participate. As a token of appreciation for their participation in the benchmark, the participants will receive a customized benchmark report tailored to their needs.
The second phase of the project involves developing a roadmap, with the insights from the benchmark study serving as its foundation. The final phase is a training program (available in four languages) focusing on Sustainable Asset Management. This training program will be offered in both physical and online formats.
Expert Board
MORE4Sustainability has, in addition to the steering committee, an Expert Board. This board consists of the following scientists:
- Willem Haanstra, Assistant Professor in Asset Life Cycle Engineering & Management, University of Twente
- Pierre Dehombreux, Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering - Mechanical Design and Production Engineering, Faculty of Engineering of Mons
- Pierrick Haurant, Assistant Professor at IMT Atlantique
- Lennart Brumby, State University of Baden-Württemberg Mannheim
The primary task of the Expert Board is to ensure the quality of the benchmark study and the roadmap. Finally, the Expert Board will be consulted with the final results.
