BWE to Call for Clear Renewables Policy

From 23-26 September 2014, WindEnergy Hamburg – the global trade show for the wind power sector – will take place for the first time.

BWE to Call for Clear Renewables Policy

Across 65,000 square meters of exhibition floor space, more than 1,000 planners, manufacturers, suppliers, financers, operators, energy providers, and service providers will be presenting themselves from the onshore and offshore sectors along with R&D.

Hamburg is not only an excellent venue for an international tradeshow, but also now a great location for the wind sector. WindEnergy Hamburg will show the strong international positioning of German suppliers and manufacturers – and how important a stable German market is towards that goal. With an export share of 67 percent and 10.67 billion euros of gross added value, the wind sector makes a major contribution to the German national economy.

For this reason, a call to Berlin and Brussels will go out from Hamburg. Germany urgently needs a clear policy commitment in light of the increasing importance of renewables, growing global markets, and quickly developing opportunities. In Hamburg, the BWE will therefore reiterate its call for reliable industrial policy that takes account of these trends, creates fair markets in Europe, and ensures international market access.

The German Wind Energy Association (Bundesverband WindEnergie) will be exhibiting in Hall A1, booth 308.
