Summary minutes of and commentary on the second meeting on an industrial international data base, Rome, February 25--26, 1975. [Committee on the Challenges of Modern Society]
This meeting was held under the auspices of the NATO Committee on the Challenges of Modern Society (CCMS); in attendance were 26 participants from nine countries, NATO, and EEC. One of the purposes for starting the CCMS program for the ''Rational Use of Energy'' was to try to alleviate the economic impact of energy costs by examining the most efficient ways that energy can be used. Following the initial part of the program consisting of a review of project objectives and a brief review of former meetings, delegates reported on their data assembled in the steel, plastics, cement, and petroleum refining industries. The items to be covered in the assembled data are listed. The coordination of the assembled data for the four industries was discussed. The basic objectives of the project are to collect data on industrial energy consumption for specific industries from participating nations; to identify and analyze any significant differences in energy use between nations for corresponding industries; from this, develop recommendations on energy conservation technology and operating practices already in effect in certain nations which could be adopted in other nations in the short to medium term (opportunities for technology transfer); and from the comparison and analysis of energy consumption data, develop recommendations for plant demonstrations and research and development of energy conservation technology in major industrial sectors.
