Location: Mövenpick Hotel, AnkaraLanguages: English / Turkish (simultaneous translation both ways)

Event Description:

The two-day conference “Powering the energy transition – The role of renewable energy and energy efficiency” aims at bringing a piece of the German Energiewende (energy transition) to Turkey and discussing what is applicable and particularly beneficial in Turkey. Its ultimate goal is to cross-connect the public, private and academic sectors of Turkey and Germany, strengthen and interlink the various networks and foster future cooperation in research and development, framework conditions and innovation for the private sector in the field of sus-tainable energy to create solutions together.

Furthermore, the conference will provide PhD-candidates and post-docs with the opportu-nity to present their research and innovation projects in the field of renewable energies and energy efficiency in the form of posters. The selected posters will be presented in the foyer of the Mövenpick Hotel throughout the congress. A designated jury of experts will evaluate the posters and present awards to the three best contributions on the final day of the seminar.
