Guide for the evaluation and improvement of the energy efficiency of installations in the European aquaculture sector

The purpose of this guide is to provide technicians and managers of aquaculture facilities with the necessary tools to maximise their energy efficiency and performance, allowing them to evaluate by themselves the state of their current facilities, as well as the impact on their energy consumption derived from the improvement actions they are considering implementing. This document consists of different sections related to the most common systems and technologies in aquaculture production. Each section begins with a brief theoretical introduction related to its content followed by the elements of analysis and calculation tools.
