CEFOODCYCLE

Official Project Name : CEFoodCycle

Start Date : 11/2022

End Date  : 11/2025

Funders and funding programme: INTERREG Espace Alpin

Budget  : 225.750,00 €

Grant : 169.313 €

Project description  :

To tackle food waste, for instance in the hospitality sector, there is a great potential for resource related to food overproduction or packaging. By applying the concept of circular economy to the food stream, CEFoodCycle will create a sustainable methodology to avoid food waste, reuse resources and close food cycles in the Alps. Resource saving potentials will be identified in product categories such as fruits and vegetables, meat or dairy products. A digital service system using artificial intelligence will connect stakeholders inside and outside the food stream. The project will enable different stakeholders to take into account resource and CO2 savings and strengthen sustainable and circular economic competitiveness in the Alps.

Project objectives :

Limiting the production of food waste, facilitating reuse in a circular economy thanks to artificial intelligence.

Key actions CCINCA :

Mapping of distributors, restaurants including master restorers and shops supplying local food products.

Identification of value chains and critical points in supply.

Development of synergies with local, regional, national and European food policies

Participation in the development of a tool to study product life cycles using artificial intelligence (beta testing).

Raising awareness on the use of short circuits and the reduction of organic waste.

Supporting identified companies to change their behaviour.

Creating communities of practice around a local food network.

Financeurs et programme de financement:

Budget  :  84 744 €

Grant : 80 507 €

Project description :

The “ENERGYEFFICIENCY4SMES” project aims to support the deployment of actions in favor of the energy transition within European SMEs in the hotel and catering and manufacturing, agri-food and metallurgy sectors. Beyond the performance of energy audits, the project aims to support the implementation of energy efficiency measures and access to funding available on the theme of energy.

The project’s objectives :

Increase the uptake of energy audit recommendations in companies (especially SMEs, but not only) through the implementation of tailor-made support activities covering the whole energy audit process, and potentially beyond.

CCINCA Key Actions : :

Support 33 SMEs in the Alpes-Maritimes in the post-audit implementation of energy efficiency measures

Participate in the creation of an online portal based on the model of the les aides.fr website, listing regional, national and European schemes that contribute to achieving the objective of carbon neutrality in 2050

Manage the overall evaluation activity of the project by implementing methodological and reporting tools (including data visualization)
