Renewable Energy Projects with a Focus on North Rhine-Westphalia Stephanus Lintker Head Global Energy Markets Network Windpower NRW EnergyAgency.NRW, Düsseldorf, 28 -th of June 2010 Slide 1
NRW wants to stay the Energy Region No. 1 NRW is highly qualified to further develop energy technologies. In comparison to other regions the development can be managed on an existing basis (tradition). The expertise exists for the complex coherences in the energy branch. A successful development in the field of energy is only possible, if all participants (Politics, Companies, Research Institutes and Universities, Credit Institutes) are working together in Clusters (networks)! Slide 2
Focussing on two Energy Clusters in NRW Cluster EnergyResearch.NRW Cluster EnergyEconomy.NRW Central Energy Conversion Dezentralized Energy Conversion Biological Production of Energy Carriers Fuel Cells & H 2 Energy Efficient and Solar Construction Power Plant Technologies Fuels and Drives of the Future Biomass Photovoltaics Windenergy Geothermal Energy Slide 3
