AIR SAVE

We recently joined the Parliamentary Secretariat for Youth, Research, and Innovation for a Thematic Press Event which focused on the future of Energy. Parliamentary Secretary Keith Azzopardi Tanti emphasised the vital role that local research plays in addressing global energy challenges.

Representing our team, Prof. Ing. Paul Refalo shared how our project AIR SAVE makes industries greener by optimising compressed air systems and lowers both energy costs and carbon footprints.
