Energy Region North Rhine Westphalia5
NRW wants to stay the Energy Region No. 1NRW is highly qualified to further develop energy technologies. In comparison to other reagions the development can be managed on an existing basis (tradition). The know how 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 (i.e. in Clusters (networks)).
Energy Region North Rhine Westphalia6
Supporting Instruments (Energy / WIND) in NRW
• Laws and Framework Conditions (Federal & State Governments)
• Subsidies (i.e. NRW Energy Program: progres.nrw)
• Research in Sustainability (Wuppertal Institute)
