World Sustainable Energy Days 2024

 

Energy transition now – fast, smart, resilient!


No time like now for the energy transition! Price fluctuations, geopolitical instabilities and the climate crisis make the importance of the energy transition evident. New EU targets require a strong push for energy efficiency and renewable energy in all sectors.

The 2024 World Sustainable Energy Days showed how to realise the high policy ambitions and how to strengthen the clean energy markets.

In 4 days, the leading conference on the energy transition and climate neutrality offered delegates 6 dedicated conferences, including the European Energy Efficiency Policy Conference, the European Pellet Conference, the Industrial Energy  Efficiency Conference and the Smart E-Mobility Conference.
