CERN is committed to improving its energy performance. Having been one of the first scientific laboratories to obtain ISO 50001 certification for energy management, the Organization has now successfully passed its 2025 surveillance audit
Projects can now begin so that 140 GWh/year – about 10% of CERN’s annual electricity consumption during accelerator operation years – will be provided by renewable sources from 2027
CERN is one of the first scientific laboratories to have obtained ISO 50001 certification for energy management. Following our first surveillance audit, find out how we can all play a role in improving energy management
It was a real honour, for me and for the Directorate as a whole, to welcome so many members of the public to CERN to discuss the Future Circular Collider (FCC) Feasibility Study. For me, debate on such projects is at the heart of democracy
CERN and the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) plan to develop new beam-intercepting devices using liquid-lead technologies to enhance the performance of particle accelerators worldwide
Through a strategic research partnership focused on CERN’s cooling and ventilation systems, energy efficiency audits have helped to identify a savings potential of 17.4% across a total of 800 motors
