Energy Efficiency Investments: The Case for Compressed Air Systems and ISO 50001

Key Definitions

Cost Effectiveness = Investment (€) / Yearly energy savings (toe)

  • Lower values indicate better investment efficiency
  • Measures the investment required to save one toe (tonne of oil equivalent) per year

NACE = Nomenclature of Economic Activities (European industrial classification system)

  • Standardized system for categorizing economic activities across EU
  • Enables comparison of energy efficiency measures across similar industrial sectors

Why Compressed Air Systems Are Universal Winners

Across virtually all industrial sectors analyzed, compressed air optimization consistently emerges as one of the most attractive energy efficiency investments.
