This Commission Staff Working Document covers energy efficiency and the use of renewable sources of energy to reduce the carbon footprint in primary aquaculture production. In addition to EU Member States, this document’s development has also drawn on practices and tools from the United Kingdom (UK) and Norway due to their proximity to the EU and the importance of their aquaculture production, research and innovation.
