Looking back over the past 15 years, experience shows that collaboration across governments, industry and experts — supported by sound analysis, aligned standards and practical tools — can help improve the efficiency of electric motor systems. EMSA has contributed to this shared learning by providing evidence, guidance and platforms for exchange, supporting ongoing efforts to improve policies, standards and real-world outcomes worldwide.

An EMSA workshop will be held on 23 February 2026 in Vienna. The workshop language is German.

EMSA conducted an international round robin testing programme and developed a guide to the measurement of packaged air compressor specific energy and isentropic efficiency based on ISO 1217:2009. An Excel calculation tool has been developed to perform the stepwise calculation of the isentropic efficiency based on test results as specified in ISO1217.
