The European Commission has released a new staff working document outlining how the aquaculture sector can reduce its carbon footprint through improved energy efficiency and increased use of renewable energy.

Focused on primary aquaculture production, the document brings together best practices and practical tools not only from EU member states but also from the United Kingdom and Norway, reflecting their strong aquaculture industries and close ties to the EU.

The course, based on the document "Implementing the Strategic Guidelines on EU Aquaculture Energy Transition in the EU Aquaculture Sector," provides a structured overview of how the industry can move towards more sustainable energy use. 

Participants will gain insight into energy consumption patterns and technologies across different aquaculture systems, as well as concrete measures to decarbonise operations. The module also highlights real-world examples of energy efficiency and emissions reduction from both EU and non-EU countries. In addition, the course addresses key challenges related to knowledge gaps, technological development and regulatory frameworks, offering guidance on how to accelerate the sector's energy transition. The training is designed to be completed in approximately one hour.
