On 26th May 2009 in the BigBox in Kempten (Allgäu), Germany

Impulses for the energy sector in the German-speaking countries

The international conference, organised by the project partners of the Alpine Space project AlpEnergy provided impulses to the energy sector in the German-speaking countries. Apart from the project partners from France, Italy, Slovenia and Switzerland, about 200 guests attended the conference. Energy suppliers and grid operators, operators of decentralised energy plants, scientists and decision-makers in companies, political bodies as well as a broad range of public experts formed a highly competent and interested audience.

The partners of the Alpine Space Project AlpEnergy and representatives of the model regions within the German federal program E-Energy (www.e-energie.info) presented and discussed their concepts. On the generation side, the latest technologies for the operation of virtual power plants and intelligent grids were in the focus. On the consumption side, the controlling and timing of current consumers via intelligent, decentralised information- and communication technologies was highlighted. Next to technical issues, business models and acceptance were also covered. The project presentations were complemented by inspiring key-note statements and gave the input to a concluding panel discussion.
