The challenges of decarbonization and digitalization, rising electricity prices, new subsidy programs and constantly changing legal guidelines pose new challenges, especially for the manufacturing industry. Currently, there is a high demand for information on the topics of renewable process energy coverage, sector coupling, energy efficiency and quite explicitly the phase-out of fossil energy supply.
A good opportunity for information on legislative changes, new funding programs and energy efficiency measures can be found by commercial enterprises in a network. Participants benefit from the exchange of experience and can implement innovative projects in their own operations.

What prompted you to become part of an information event for the Bavarian EnergyEfficiency Network Initiative BEEN-i?
Dr. Hannes Zapf: As a medium-sized family businessman, I am glad and grateful that information and networking events for us SMEs are regularly and currently offered and organized via Bayern Innovativ. This is the best way for me to stay abreast of future issues and current research and innovation topics.
What do you see as the advantages of an energy efficiency network?
Dr. Hannes Zapf: The network promotes a view of the other companies that have the same challenges. The network participants learn among themselves and use the swarm intelligence. And they can help organize their own energy solutions regionally in networks.
Where do you currently see the biggest challenges in decarbonizing industry?
Dr. Hannes Zapf: We need more decentralized, regional solutions to organize "green" energy supply with generation, storage and use by regional companies.
