Clean Energy for EU Islands Online Forum

Due to the current health and travel situation, this year's edition of the Clean Energy for EU Islands Forum will be held online.

The programme will focus on creating stronger links between the EU institutions and the local actions on the island. Representatives from different institutions will introduce their role in creating the enabling framework for the decarbonisation of EU islands, and island communities will present and discuss their activities with peers and EU representatives. 

AquaBattery

AquaBattery is a cleantech startup based in the Netherlands developing sustainable energy storage technologies.Our flagship product is the BlueBattery which can store energy in table saltwater. It is highly scalable, safe, and affordable. We are operating demonstration pilots for the BlueBattery and expect to reach a commercial-stage in two years.Another product that we have developed, which is market-ready, is the TerraBattery (https://terrabattery.com/). It is fully integrated energy storage systems which is environmentally friendly (100% recyclable), long-lived (min.

Webinar: Understanding island dynamics for a good start of the energy transition

One of the key challenges for many islands in the early stages of their energy transition is to gather the relevant information about the current status on the island - identifying the main sources of CO_2 emissions, identifying key stakeholders on the island, understanding the policy context your island works in, and more.

Establishing this baseline ensures you have all the tools at hand to define effective and realistic transition pathways and projects.

QuinteQ Energy, the world's most advanced flywheel technology

Islands are the ideal testbed for identifying, testing and introducing energy innovations. Island communities are resilient by nature therefore more inclined towards introducing systems and solutions that help to protect their community and increase their self-reliance. Clean energy-based microgrids are a way for islands to create a cleaner living environment, reduce dependence on fossil-based fuels and supply chains and reduce the overall cost of energy.

Stichting New Energy Coalition

New Energy Coalition is a network and knowledge coalition that is committed to a smart and successful transition to the sustainable energy system of the future, in the Netherlands and the rest of the world. The foundation is a triple-helix organization funded by public and private parties as well as knowledge institutions. The organization was created in 2017 when three renowned energy institutes merged: Energy Academy Europe, Energy Valley and Energy Delta Institute. This created a comprehensive coalition of knowledge and educational institutions, leading companies and governments.
