Large_Description

Background
With the IEE programme (Intelligent Energy Europe) the
European Commission promotes the energy-efficiency
and the rational use of resources.
Based on industry-expressed ideas, EURATEX
presented in May 2011 a project proposal for an IEE
innovation-project specifically tailored for the European
Clothing industry.
Selected in November 2011, the project, SESEC, kicks
off on 28th March 2012 in Brussels (IEE/11/827/SI2.615931 - SESEC).

Objectives
• To develop, test and offer an Energy Efficiency tool for clothing production, made up
of guidelines and web-based applications, suitable for SMEs and large companies;
• To maximise the project impact, by transferring its results to the sector through
EURATEX members and interested companies;
• To offer training and support to companies to implement energy-saving measures
considering cost-effectiveness;
• In the mid-term, to improve opportunities for energy-efficiency for the whole European
clothing industry.

Implementation
Over its 30 months duration the SESEC project plans actions in several European counties
according to 4 major phases:
• 4/2012 - 1/2013, State-of-the-art analysis and similar initiatives evaluation, energy
audits at company premises focused on product-groups, energy benchmarks set up;
• 11/2012 - 1/2014, identification of energy savings areas and methodology, a webbased
energy-efficiency self-assessment tool (development, test and completion) for
companies;
• 8/2013 - 7/2014, training kit development and training activities for companies;
• 4/2012 - 7/2014, communication, stakeholders involvement and results promotion.

Collaborations
Collaboration opportunities can be discussed and take place throughout the SESEC project
and include: energy audits at company premises (autumn - winter 2012); data collection and
tools testing (2013); training activities set up and energy-efficiency events organizations (2nd
half 2013 - 1st half 2014); participation in results evaluation and project strategic steering.
