Saving Cooperative Energy (SCOoPE) is a energy efficiency project aimed at improving energy efficiency
at Small- and Midsized Enterprises in the European agri-food industry. The project consists of six key
phases: i. Pre-project actor engagement, ii. a desktop phase, iii. a tool development phase, iv. a benchmarking phase, v. a deployment phase, vi. and a communication phase. This article provides an overview
of the set-up of the project, as well as a presentation of initial conclusions. The main basis for the conclusions are five performed energy audits of Danish dairy processing plants.
