2nd Forum on the Clean Energy Initiative for EU islands

24/10/2018

The second edition of the Forum “Clean Energy Initiative for the Islands of the EU” will take place next November 4, 5 and 6 in Lanzarote, organized by the regional ministry for economy, industry, commerce and knowledge (Consejería de Economía, Industria, Comercio y Conocimiento) of the Government of the Canary Islands together with the Secretariat of such initiative, on behalf of the Directorate General for Energy of the European Commission.

The European Commission has entrusted the Canary Islands with the celebration of the second edition of this meeting, given its commitment to the promotion of energy saving and renewable energies, especially through the promotion of unique projects already developed such as the Hydroelectric Power Plant in the island of El Hierro.

During this forum, several examples of good practices relating to energy in island environments will be presented, so that the public is aware of the challenges and opportunities provided by the decarbonization process in the Islands, as well as real cases.
