From 25 May to 8 June, Danfoss Drives will be hosting four business-relevant Factory Efficiency Days to provide primarily European participants with valuable and innovative ideas on how to elevate energy efficiency in their factories. Renowned, expert industry speakers have been invited to cover everything from energy policies to energy management, distribution, and consumption and to take attendees through some of the technical trends that shape our society in 2021.
Besides Danfoss’ own factory efficiency experts, an impressive lineup of prominent thought leaders will be joining the sessions: Hugo Salamanca from the IEA, Olaf Kuhnt and Cebastien Foumouo-Tsakou from the Wilo Group, Jakov Perisic from Molson Coors, professor Holder Borcherding, Davis Meike from Mercedes-Benz and Peter Markussen from Energinet.
The four events will take place from 09:00-10:30 CET and be individually themed. However, the common denominator will be improving overall factory efficiency.
Factory Efficiency Days – session contents
Energy efficiency is the first fuel and it’s readily available
25 May 2021
For the first live event, Hugo Salamanca, Energy Policy Analyst at IEA, will present the benefits of increasing energy efficiency across industries thus kick-starting the much-needed green energy transition. Continuing down the energy efficiency path, Michael Burghardt, Danfoss Drives, will shine a light on AC drives as a contributor to increased energy efficiency in motor-driven production systems in Europe.
Cebastien Foumouo-Tsakou and Olaf Kuhnt from the Wilo Group share how they managed to reduce their factories’ energy consumption by more than 35%!
Data is power. Use it to enhance your performance.
27 May 2021
In this session, Jakov Perisic from Molson Coors details the value industry 4.0 technologies can add to the shop floor. In his experience, predictive maintenance delivers both manufacturing reliability and reduces production costs. Jörg Dannehl from Danfoss Drives shares ready-to-implement insights on how AC drives can ease the work and simultaneously increase factory efficiency.
Is DC-industry the production concept of the future?
1 June 2021
For the third event, DC-industry to enhance factory efficiency is the overriding theme. Olli-Pekka Aalto, Danfoss Drives will talk about digitalizing and redesigning the industrial energy supply of the future.
Holger Borcherding, a professor at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Ostwestfalen-Lippe, is an absolute expert on industrial DC grids in modern factories and determined to solve the challenges of industrial energy supply using direct current.
Another pioneer joining this session is Davis Meike from Mercedes-Benz. He has exciting insights to share about the current state of technology and a pilot project from the automotive industry.
Paving the way for a green and reliable pan-European power supply.
8 June 2021
For the fourth and final event, Peter Markussen from Energinet speaks about the progress as well as the challenges we’re facing in the green transition of our current energy system. Peter Markussen is joined by the Senior Vice President Sales, Marketing and Services of Danfoss Drives, Søren Kvorning, who knows how transformational energy-efficient thinking can be to businesses. Søren Kvorning will present the smart solutions industry already has to offer.

| These days, the focus on optimization and efficiency in every aspect of our society is growing and rightfully so. Too much energy isn’t utilized optimally or wasted even, which is money down the drain. The energy which isn’t spent is also not paid for so there’s a big financial benefit to becoming more energy efficient. And from a climate point of view, it’s interesting to note that the greenest of energy is the one we’re not using. |
