RENREN - Unique experiences on RES put together

Submitted by Sergio Ferreira on Fri, 2007-04-20 13:28.

RENREN, The Renewable Energy Regions Network, was launched the 17th April 2007, according to a Euractiv article. This network includes the regions of Oberösterreich (Austria), Schleswig-Holstein (Germany), North Sweden and Wales (UK), as well as small European states Cyprus and Iceland. These regions were chosen for their distinctive experience on one of the following fields: wind, oceans, solar, biomass, geothermal or hydro energy.

The objective of the network is to facilitate the exchange of best practice and information between regional powers as well as to boost cooperation between private companies that are involved in the success of the projects developed in these regions.

European Commissioner for Energy Andris Piebalgs and the minister for agriculture, environment and rural areas of the German federal state of Schleswig-Holstein, Christian von Bötticher, were present at the launching event stating that the dynamism and the good results of these regions were once again being rewarded. They demonstrated great support for the initiative and trust that it will grow and expand to other regions.
