Themes of the “Energy for Sustainable Science at RIs” workshops Energy Management at Research Infrastructures To share experience between representatives from various research laboratories from Europe, Americas and Asia: strategies, goals and institutional practice to advance environmental sustainability at their research facilities and research campus with particular emphasis on energy savings and energy efficiency measures Energy Efficiency, Energy recovery and Energy quality Practical examples in different domains: computer centre, buildings, accelerators operation, waste energy… Green Technologies developed at Research Infrastructures What are the technologies which are developed a RI and can be transferred in the domain of energy saving and renewable energy

Plenary talks Thursday, 29 October 2015 Friday, 30 October 2015 10:30 Plenary I – Auditorium Chair: Helmut Dosch, DESY & ERF ‧ Sustainable EU Research Infrastructures, Antonio Di Giulio, DG Research & Innovation, Brussels ‧ View from ESFRI John Womersley, STFC and Chair of ESFRI Friday, 30 October 2015
Goals of the workshop To create a sustainable forum for open exchange of practices and policies on energy management in RIs (Energy awareness ! 4th Workshop ! When and where?) To share best practices on energy efficiency, recovery, storage and global optimization (Energy coordinator forum ?) To define energy and sustainability strategies, policies and management at research laboratories for the core infrastructures (accelerators, experiments,…) the computer centres the tertiary buildings and the campus, including aspects of mobility To identify and share experience on energy procurement methods (grouped procurement ?), innovative financing (construction costs % operation costs) and on governmental legislation (tax exemptions,…) To encourage more cooperation in joint approaches, initiatives, projects and training. To develop jointly programs to train researchers, operators and managers to face the upcoming energy challenges (dedicated school?) To offer an opportunity for government (especially the EU) to develop and set up a coordinated and supportive action program to deal with energy management for large-scale RIs
The organization of the COP21 climate conference in Paris (7-8 December; Conference of Parties; 2015 Paris Climate Conference) cannot fail to remind us how important the issue of energy is for our society. Over the last few years our research organizations have joined the debate, starting to look at what we ourselves can do to save or recover energy and thus improve our energy management. To focus and optimise the scientific performances of RIs while including the best energy management. No future research projects without energy management and efficiency as part of the objectives. Not a constraint but an opportunity!
May the Energy be with you! Thanks for your attention
