Implementing Renewable Energy in the 21st Century
The Kick-off Conference for the European Union Renewable Energy
Strategy.
26 - 27 May 1999, RAI Congress Forum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
On the 25th & the 26th May 1999 during Sustain '99, The World
Sustainable Energy Fair, the conference "Implementing Renewable Energy in the 21st
Century" is taking place.
The conference, a common EnR Altener Action, will provide the platform
for the European Union 'Campaign for Take-off'. The proposed objectives for this from now
to the year 2003 are:
| One million PV systems |
| 15 million metres squared of solar collectors |
| 10,000 MW of wind turbine generators |
| 10,000 MW of CHP biomass installations |
| One million dwellings heated by biomass |
| 1,000 MW of biogas installations |
| 5 million tonnes of liquid biofuels |
These objectives set out in the European Commission White Paper for a
Community Strategy and Action Plan are intended to contribute to the overall target of
doubling the share of Renewable Energy Sources from 6 % to 12 % by 2010.
The implementation of this strategy is now ready to begin, by launching
"The Campaign for Take-off", an initiative where key sectors in the field of
renewable energy will combine to meet these objectives on a national and a Community
level. The European Commission will establish the framework, provide some financial and
technical assistance, and co-ordinate actions. Both public and private sector
contributions will be needed to realise these ambitious objectives.
The Renewable Energy Partnership is a key element of this campaign,
consisting in framework agreements for the implementation of projects involving renewable
energy sources between the Commission and public authorities, industries, promoters and
associations. There are opportunities for all actors in Europe whatever service you supply
or need. Attendance at this conference is the first step in your involvement in this joint
effort. The full programme for the conference is available at www.emml.com or contact the organisers direct
for a hard copy.
This conference will demonstrate numerous examples of the direction in
which we are heading and open many avenues of co-operation. One of these is the
opportunity to take part in the "Renewable Energy Partnership - involving new actors
in the campaign". Members of the partnership will, within the scope of their
responsibilities and potential, join the campaign and contribute towards fulfilment of its
objectives.
