The conference "RENEWABLE AND NON-RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES TO ENSURE ECONOMIC GROWTH. VINNYTSA EXPERIENCE " in Vinnytsia, December, 6th, 2016, is the third event in the series of upcoming final conferences at 2016 year end. The Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production Centre (RECPC) organized the conference within UNIDO project framework.

 The Conference presented cumulative annual project results on resource efficiency and cleaner production implementation at seven (7) enterprises and facilities in Vinnytsia region. These seven enterprises became project implementation participants in 2016.

Having conducted comprehensive technical audits the RECPC team worked out the solutions and proposals ensuring:

Water consumption reduction – 15,142 m3 annually;

Heat savings in equivalent – 2,101,32 MWh annually;

Electricity consumption – by 299,41 MWh annually;

Material use reduction – 272,192 t annually;

CO2 reduction – by 778,505 t annually.

The overall economic impact to be achieved thanks to the proposed solutions implementation amounts to about 2,640,210 million / year.

Over the past two years, Ukraine has been suffering a critical decline tendency in industrial development. The demand does not meet the proposal as overall production decline goes in parallel with a decline in commodity products sales and that phenomenon has become very noticeable. Therefore, the manufacturers have started showing big interest to using and implementing RECP options. The RECP practices and technologies ensure companies and enterprises optimizing equipment operation and sufficiently reducing resource and energy consumption thus, as a result, improving production performance, caring about the environment and raising companies’ competitiveness status.
