What future for wind in Europe?

11:30 – 13:00, Tuesday, 27 September 2016

“The future does not look like the past”. Find out what Michael Liebreich meant in this brand new Business Meets Policy session. You will have the opportunity to discuss with him how his company, Bloomberg New Energy Finance, sees the current state and future prospects of wind power in Europe.

A panel of captains of industry will deliberate on what keeps the ship moving. Markus Tacke heads Siemens Wind Power & Renewables, which thrived with developments in offshore wind. He and Michael Lewis, CEO of E.ON Climate & Renewables, will outline how to capitalise on this growing market.
You will glean further future insights from three more business leaders. Magnus Hall, CEO of Vattenfall, recently launched a €3m scientific fund to maximise the learning opportunities in the offshore industry. Luca Bettonte, Group CEO of ERG, and Jose Ángel Marra from Iberdrola will draw on their experience in often challenging European onshore wind markets.

Claude Turmes, one of the key authors of the existing European renewable energy legislation adds the policy angle to these distinguished business views. An influential Member of the European Parliament and President of the European Forum for Renewable Energy Sources, Mr Turmes will look ahead to the next decade for renewable energy policy.
