The Relevance of Cross-Border Electricity Grids on the North and Baltic Seas for Offshore Wind Energy in Germany

Event: Workshop
Date: 6 December 2013
Location: Berlin, Germany

The workshop brought together experts to discuss the opportunities and challenges of an expansion of cross-border electricity grids at sea for offshore wind energy in Germany. It was the first of four workshops to be organized by Ecologic Institute in this subject area.

The workshop is embedded in a European project led by E3G to develop an integrated North Seas Grid.

On 30 April 2014, Ecologic Institute hosted an expert workshop on the significance of the European Commission's proposed new energy governance, focusing on options and implications for electricity infrastructure measures. Twenty-one participants including policy makers as well as representatives of civil society, academia and business discussed possible requirements of, approaches to, and effects of such new measures through a set of structured questions and impromptu presentations. The summary is available for download.

Regional Cooperation in the Commission's Proposal for a New Energy Governance

Options and Implications for Electricity Infrastructure Measures

Year 2014

Event:Workshop

What shape will the future governance framework of European climate and energy policy take? The proposal submitted by the European Commission at the beginning of this year raises more questions than it answers in this regard. Dr. Camilla Bausch and Christine Lucha of the Ecologic Institute invited experts to a workshop to discuss the meaning of the commission's suggestions with a particular view toward electricity infrastructure. All presentation slides are available for download.
