The following feedback was collected from the stakeholders:

"Energy agencies should play a proactive role in providing tailored support to industrial companies, helping them navigate the complexities of motor system optimization and energy efficiency measures. Energy agencies should develop a portfolio of materials, including flyers, guides, and a dedicated website featuring best practices, case studies and practical tools for companies.

Establishing one-stop shops for SMEs would offer comprehensive support, going beyond free audits to include implementation assistance and consulting services. Information campaigns should highlight the best practice examples to demonstrate the tangible benefits of motor system optimization and inspire broader adoption.

Energy consultants should be trained through a "train-the-trainer" approach, as the topic of motors (with the exception of ventilation systems) is often overlooked in current energy efficiency discussions.

The funding landscape is already robust, but information programmes must be strategically combined with existing funding initiatives to maximize their impact and ensure implementation."
