European Renewable Energy Policy Conference 2007

Vom 29.01.2007 bis 31.01.2007

Building on previous efforts and achievements such as the European Conference for Renewable energy ‘Intelligent Policy Options’ (19-21 January 2004, Berlin) organised successfully with the support of the European Commission (DG TREN), and in order to realise national and sectoral mid-term targets, further analysis and concerted efforts on political, legislative, administrative, social, cultural, economic and marketing aspects are required in order to achieve a sound long-term development of RES.

These efforts and achievements will be presented, evaluated and discussed during the 2007 European Renewable Energy Policy Conference as well as future policy development. It aims to be the meeting place for European renewable energy industry representatives and national & European policy makers. It will provide a platform for the sharing of ideas, discussion of concepts and the making of recommendations for a future strategy towards a sustainable energy supply.

Programme
The programme will be structured around 3 leading themes
• RES market development and contribution to the Energy Policy for Europe
This theme will contain presentations that give an overview of the latest technological, financial and economic information on renewable energy technologies as well as their contribution to security of energy supply, Europe’s competitiveness, environmental protection, reduction of import dependency, the role in energy diplomacy and peace keeping.
• RES policies framework - renewable energy roadmap
The focus during this theme will be on the implementation of existing policies and measures concerning RES at the local, national and EU level. Concrete instruments and legislation will be discussed in the context of the EU’s “renewable energy roadmap”: New initiatives such as a EU directive for renewables heating and cooling, innovative financing instruments, strengthening of existing legislation, R&D needs, renewables in the context of the Lisbon strategy, export opportunities and business cooperation.
• Looking forward: Outlook on the future
A future outlook will be presented. This is particularly important in view of the setting of ambitious targets leading up to 2020 and beyond, and showing ways on how to reach them within the renewables roadmap to be presented by the Commission in March 2007. As investments in the energy sector are always of long-term nature, a clear future outlook and forward looking policies are absolutely crucial. This theme is particularly timely considering the vicinity of the 2010 targets and the EU strategy for security of energy supply.

The conference is co-organised by: EREC - European Renewable Energy Council, whose members are AEBIOM, EGEC, EPIA, ESHA, ESTIF, EUBIA, EUREC Agency, and EWEA, and the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, Germany. The conference is co-financed by the European Commission, under the Intelligent Energy Europe Programme.
