- This paper impacts the state of the art by allowing energy requirements of the manufacturing stage to be considered during the design stage of a product. The approach in the paper has been principle to the foundation of, and applied in, three research projects; EP/M1488/1 (EPSRC), 13225 (I-UK) and 13936 (I-UK) which all seek to improve energy efficiency in manufacturing and have enabled several companies (e.g., Greencore, Martec of Whitwell, Laser Optical Engineering) to utilise the approach for improved energy efficiency purposes.
