Corporate and marketing events provide a perfect environment for those looking to engage and connect. As a sponsor, you can network, learn about current industry trends, and hear from key experts.

Last year, the European Commission conducted a thorough investigation of EU companies. To determine whether businesses’ claims about their sustainability practices were misleading, the National Consumer Protection Agency screened for greenwashing. The EU report indicates that “in 42% of cases, the environmental claims were exaggerated, false or deceptive and could potentially qualify as unfair commercial practices under EU rules”. The number of companies that have been accused of greenwashing is staggering. Yet, even experienced marketers can unintentionally mislead the public.

As the prices of fossil fuels rise and Europe moves forward in its efforts to reduce carbon emissions, nuclear power is at the center of the renewable energy debate. Since Brussels has pledged to fund sustainability efforts, the question of whether nuclear energy is green or not remains relevant. Certainly, incorporating nuclear energy into the EU taxonomy for sustainable activities would allow private business owners, political leaders, and energy companies to meet increasingly high environmental standards. However, not all countries are convinced that nuclear power is a sufficient carbon-free alternative to the ongoing energy crisis.

The EU REACH is the most important regulatory framework governing chemicals in Europe. REACH, which stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals, is an effort by the European Union to enhance its environmental and human health protection. Companies must keep up with the latest chemical production guidelines in order to avoid legal risks, operate in compliance with regional laws, and remain competitive.

There is no doubt that the European power market has been through a period of transition over the past decade. Changes in environmental policies, new technologies, and rapidly rising fossil fuel prices have altered the energy scene around the globe. As the industry sees shifts in patterns, companies need to keep their eyes peeled for certain long-term trends to avoid volatility. The time to refocus is now, so make sure you don’t neglect your long-term planning by looking at these 5 long-term trends in the European power market.

“Energy Transition & Emission Reduction Forum 2022” was held in Stockholm on the 9th-10th of June with both days consisting of relevant content presented by experts in the field. The event allowed delegates to engage with industry leaders while learning more about the future of sustainability in the metals and mining sector.

The 2022 Future Bridge conference ‘The Power Price Forecasting Summit” was held this summer in Barcelona, Spain. The two-day event took place between the 9th-10th of June, with both days containing relevant presentations, Q&A sessions, and networking activities with the energy industry giants.

Hydraulic systems are one of the most efficient ways to transport mechanical energy. Engineers may now create systems that are more efficient, effective, and cost-effective thanks to new technology and breakthroughs. Hydraulic system manufacturers are investigating ways to improve the intelligence of their products using electrohydraulics, which combines electric motors and controls with hydraulics.

The IPCC report portrays an alarming scenario for the future of our food systems. Food insecurity will be unevenly distributed, hitting the poorest areas of the world more severely. By 2050, large land areas might be degraded, and pollination will be hindered if the temperature continues rising. Regenerative Agriculture can be a useful ally in the transition of our food system. The support of this holistic cultural approach to agriculture would contribute to restoring climate stability, increasing biodiversity, rebuilding soil fertility, and producing healthy food. RegAgri4Europe is a two-year project financed by the Erasmus+ Programme.

The new Regulation on Stage V is the most comprehensive revision of the non-road mobile machinery regulations since Stage IIIB. The main objectives of the Regulation are to ensure that NRMM engines placed on the market in the EU are type-approved in accordance with the new emission limits introduced by the Regulation. This will ensure a high level of environmental protection while avoiding market fragmentation and ensuring a level playing field for all manufacturers on global markets.

In this Global Power Outage & Safety Process Management pre-conference podcast our speaker Oskar Borsos would be highlighting a few points from his upcoming presentation about improving quality of life with proactive communication.

In the podcast, Mr. Fairley emphasizes the need for more resilient grid networks in the context of electrification and the increasing digitalization of contemporary societies. The already high demand for power supply is estimated to double by the year 2050, putting a lot of pressure on the grid networks. It is, therefore, critical for DSOs to develop functional and outage management systems, as avoiding fault is something that the DSOs can benefit from significantly, both in terms of cost-efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Future Bridge held a pre-event podcast with the COO of dLab – Henrik Weinberg. MC’s, in anticipation of the conference. We wanted to get ann insight into the presentation “A Single Source of Truth for Substation Analytics Gives DSOs Power to Act” which Mr. Winberg will give at the Global Power Outage & Safety Process Management Conference in April.

One of the speakers from the Global Power Outage & Safety Process Management Conference joined this episode of the pre-conference podcast to reveal and discuss the critical points of his presentation about automation as a tool towards an excellent reliability level.

We believe that these are the best ways to experience more memorable events. In the coming months, we will focus on perfecting this experience.

To protect the consumer, it is important that the food on our table is produced, processed, and distributed in a safe manner. Food trade liberalisation and globalisation have not only opened our borders, but they have also increased our susceptibility to pest and food safety threats. The number of people affected by food poisoning in industrialised countries is increasing by 30% annually.
