Description du projet
Construire un avenir plus vert dans les parcs industriels
Les parcs industriels sont confrontés au double défi de la flambée des coûts de l’énergie et de la consommation excessive. Ils sont également contraints d’augmenter la production d’énergie renouvelable. Dans ce contexte, le projet S-PARCS, financé par l’UE, s’est fixé pour objectif de tester des modèles innovants de coopération et de services énergétiques durables. Une pré-évaluation de sept parcs de phares en Espagne, au Portugal, en Italie et en Autriche, menée par le projet a révélé un immense potentiel d’actions énergétiques communes. Cette initiative novatrice rassemble des organismes de recherche, des sociétés d’ingénierie et des associations industrielles afin d’élaborer des plans de coopération énergétique et de susciter des impacts de viabilité sur le long terme. En réduisant les coûts énergétiques, en exploitant la chaleur de récupération et en déployant des projets renouvelables à petite échelle, S-PARCS entend transformer les parcs industriels et ouvrir la voie à un avenir plus vert.
Objectif
S-PARCS: Envisioning and Testing New Models of Sustainable Energy Cooperation and Services in Industrial Parks
S-PARCS presents a sound concept for reducing energy costs and energy consumption in industrial parks, while, at the same time, increasing renewable on-site energy production. The pre-assessment of the seven “Lighthouse Parks” from Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Austria, which participate in the study, has shown a high potential for joint energy actions, many of which are transferrable to the community of S-PARCS Followers in the UK, Sweden, Turkey, Russia, Italy, Portugal, Austria and Norway. 5 research organisations, 1 engineering company and 1 industrial association will make their knowledge on suitable technologies, novel business models and cooperative action among companies available to the parks to help them develop an “energy cooperation plan” and the necessary skills to achieve a long-lasting sustainability impact. At the end of the project, all Lighthouse parks will be equipped with a free ICT tool supporting the decision-making processes on joint investments, at least 1 full feasibility study for the most promising cooperative project, as well as a strategy for longer-term actions. 65 of the 278 located in the “Lighthouse Parks” are expected to benefit directly from reduced energy costs derived from energy efficiency measures, such as the use of waste heat, joint energy purchases and a wide range of viable small-scale renewable projects. Improvements in the parks in terms of energy efficiency are likely to be superior to 10%. The project’s impact, however, extends to the entire Follower Community, thanks to the identification of at least 20 viable cooperative energy solutions, which are to be widely disseminated. The identification of relevant financial, legal and organizational barriers to joint energy action in the parks – and ways of overcoming them - will make a valuable contribution to policy-making on regional, national and European level.
