Germany Trade & Invest Presents: Cleantech Breakfast Seminar
July 8, 2015 @ 7:30 am - 10:00 am
Over breakfast, German and local San Diego industry experts will give you insights on the current status, future trends and investment opportunities in the Southern Californian and German clean technologies market.
The German Cleantech market has experienced a massive boost in recent years. This is due in large part to Germany’s ambitious energy transition (Energiewende). Renewable energy sources currently produce around 30% of all electricity consumed in Germany and this share is to be increased to at least 80% by 2050. Solar power and onshore- and offshore wind power will be the main pillars of renewable energy production. The integration of fluctuating renewable energies into the electricity grid demands innovative storage solutions and major investment in the transmission grid. Come hear how your company can play a role in Germany’s Energiewende.
Speakers
• William Torre, UC San Diego, Center for Energy Research
• Thomas Grigoleit, Germany Trade & Invest
• Dr. Philipp Bouteiller, Berlin TXL
You will also have the opportunity to meet with representatives of the Eastern German Federal States to hear about unique opportunities in these regions in Germany.
