ABSTRACT

On behalf of the Berlin Senate, I have great pleasure in opening this conference on "Energy efficiency in industry".

The people of Berlin are very grateful to the Commission of the European Communities for the considerable efforts it has made within and on behalf of Berlin, marking the 750th anniversary of the city by staging three international energy conferences here. The first conference in April was devoted to "Solar-heated swimming pools", in June there was "Coal in the heat market", and to conclude we now have this conference on "Energy efficiency in industry".
