Aerial view of the Norske Skog paper mill in Bruck an der Mur
A residual-matter power plant resumed operation on the paper mill site in March 2022. The power plant is a fluidized bed unit that will enable Norske Skog to reduce CO2 emissions by up to 150,000 tons per year.

Digital Technologies to Increase the Energyefficiency in Electric Motor Systems
This figure gives an overview of the technologies that were identified as relevant for energy efficiency in electric motor systems in several workshops, in the survey and interviews. Starting on the left-hand side, technologies listed are smart sensors, advanced control on the level of machines and the Internet of things enabling communication between the different levels and components (in dark blue). Furthermore, the next level is the use of possibilities to analyse data and optimize operation (in green): data analytics on both the level of motor systems and on the level of production lines or even the whole company. Continuous monitoring of the different appliances is also significant. Technologies adding advantages to these applications (in grey) are digital twins, cloud-based services and artificial intelligence. Augmented reality can help to implement the suggested measures. Three technologies that are not directly related to the optimization of motor driven systems, but are of further interest include drones, 3D printing and advanced robotics.

Important instruments to overcome barriers to using digital production technologies
Around three quarters of the respondents consider the development of education programmes and the standardisation process to harmonise protocols, as well as subsidies for research as important policy instruments to overcome these barriers.
