Energy Infrastructure
Over 1,200 companies taking part in the Energy show at this years HANNOVER MESSE. Key themes in 2017 will be the digitalization of the energy transition, virtual power plants, energy system integration and innovative energy storage solutions. The German Energy Agency (dena) is organized in partnership with a number of German industry associations, including the bdew, BEE, bne, GTAI, VDE, VDMA, VKU and ZVEI. The Plazas lineup of exhibits include a display of the current Kopernikus energy transition projects of the German "We will present the initial results of our pilot study into a framework for an integrated energy transition that ensures the commercial viability of the process going forward," explains dena CEO Andreas Kuhlmann. "The German energy show is designed to foster constructive dialogue about smart solutions that will stand the test of time," says Dr. Veit Hagenmeyer.
