Sub-programmes: suggestions
•SP 1: Pulp And Paper Industrial Process
•SP2: Agro-food Industrial Process
•SP3: Market Conditions For Energy Efficiency
www.eera-set.eu
SP 1: Pulp & Paper Industrial Process
Why to start such a Sub-programme:
•Pulp and paper is an energy-intensive industry. On average, energy costs
are 16 % of the production costs, in some cases up to 30 %.
•It is the largest user and producer of renewable energy.
Suggested approach:
•Since many of the already available innovative technologies have not yet been
able to demonstrate market viability, most of the potential emerging
technologies are currently in a “valley of death”, unable to achieve market
deployment. These should be the focus of the SP’s activity.
www.eera-set.eu
SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
Why to start such a Sub-programme:
•The agro-food industry is the largest manufacturer sector in Europe.

SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
BACKGROUND ISSUES
• Wide and heterogeneous sector with strong relationships between farmers,
food producers and retailers.
• Mass retailers decision drives the demand.
• Price is the main driver to save energy resources and money along the food
chain.
• Environmental impact is a growing issues for Retailers/Consumers and energy
plays a key role in the overall impact accounting.
• On large scale industrial products there is a growing attention to the Carbon
footprint that is strongly influenced by the farming techniques including energy
intensity.
www.eera-set.eu
SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
Suggested approach:
• To look globally at the agro-food system, identifying innovative solutions for
implementing energy efficiency in both agriculture and industry sectors.
• To propose advanced concepts to reduce energy consumption.
MAJOR QUESTION:
•What the added-value of integrating agriculture into the agro-food
industry?
To properly reply to this main question we suggest 5 bullet points
with the aim to support our idea to address the entire agro-food chain point
of view.

SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
FIVE MAJOR REASONS WHY TO ADOPT A BROADER VISION
1) The NEXUS approach for an integrated vision.
2) The ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION: a communication tool
for the market.
3) Closing the cycles and local farm - food enterprises symbiosis.
4) Energy consumption in agro-food industrial processes and in agriculture.
5) Feedstock improvement for more efficient industrial processes.

SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
REASON 1. The NEXUS approach for an integrated vision.
www.eera-set.eu
SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
REASON 2. The ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION:
a communication tool for the market.
What is an EPD®?
An Environmental Product Declaration, EPD®, is a verified document that
reports environmental data of products based on life cycle assessment (LCA)
and other relevant information and in accordance with the international
standard ISO 14025 (Type III Environmental Declarations).
www.eera-set.eu
SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
REASON 2. The ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION:
a communication tool for the market.
 Large scale food producers and mass retailers are offering the consumers
added value information to increase awareness of food impacts.
 Many other label are available on the market to provide eco-information to
the final consumer.
 Environmental indicators are drivers to push all food chain to implement
cooperative efforts to decrease carbon impacts via energy saving from Farm to
Fork

SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
REASON 3. Closing the cycles and local farm - food enterprises
symbiosis.
Food processing residues can be transformed in energy used for the food processing cycle
via A.D.,Biogas and CHP. Moreover……….we can have local sinergies………….

REASON 4. Energy consumption in agro-food industrial processes
and in agriculture.
European AGRO-FOOD INDUSTRY
accounts for several production
sub-sectors:
On average, energy consumptions in the AGRO-FOOD INDUSTRY show this % distribution:

SP 2: Agro-food Industrial Process
REASON 4. Energy consumption in agro-food industrial processes and in agriculture.
The agro-food system accounts
for about 20% of the total EU
fossil fuel consumption.
Final energy consumption in food, drink and tobacco industry in EU-27, 1990-2006.

REASON 4. Energy consumption in agro-food industrial processes and in agriculture.
Energy balance of industrial
processes and associated
energy consumption in Spanish
F&V cooperatives based on
cooling processes.
Data proceeding from a 2010 analysis by Cooperativas
Agro-alimentarias of ten Spanish F&V processing
plants in the frame of the Tesla Project.

REASON 4. Energy consumption in agro-food industrial processes and in agriculture.
Energy balance of industrial
processes and associated
energy consumption in a standard
Portuguese olive oil cooperative
producing on average 1.600 tons
of olive oil processed/year.
Data proceeding from energy audits performed in 2012 by
University of Evora in some Portuguese olive oil producing
industries with 1.600 tons of olive oil processed per year, in the
frame of the Tesla Project.

REASON 5. Feedstock improvement for more efficient industrial
processes.
R&D ON SOIL FOR FARMING
•
Soil & organic agriculture (environmental sustainability).
•
Soil management to increase crop productivity.
R&D ON PLANT FEEDSTOCKS AND CULTIVATED SPECIES
• Plant genetic improvement through innovative breeding strategies that take
advantage of new genetic/genomics and molecular technologies.
• Plant genetic improvement for adaptation (and capacity of adaptation) and
productive traits and for efficient resource use (water, nutrients and energy).

REASON 5. Feedstock improvement for more efficient industrial
processes.
FOOD SECURITY, QUALITY AND ADDED-VALUE OF LOCAL
SPECIES/VARIETIES
• Safer and healthier food.
• Food traceability.
• Higher quality food, more and more tailored to the specific dietary need of
consumers, to the consumer preferences and lifestyle.
• Food design: processing, packaging, process control, waste reduction, byproduct valorization, etc.
• Recover of the biological diversity and traditional local materials.
• Sustainable production using renewable bioresources.

SP 3:Market Conditions For EE
Why to start such a Sub-programme:
•a cross-cutting sub-programme focused on (energy & commodity)
markets barriers
Suggested approach:
•To evaluate a comprehensive approach proposing instruments and
mechanisms which may help to overcome the market barriers in energy
efficient technologies implementation, through the realization of synthetic and
specific reports tailored on Member States’ market peculiarities.
