30 for 30 | 30 renewable islands for 2023

In 2023 we will select 30 islands that want to become fully renewable by 2030. Achieving fully renewable-energy-powered islands is the North Star objective for the third phase of the Clean energy for EU island secretariat. At the #CE4EUislands forum 2023, we will discuss all the building blocks to be able to achieve that ambition. 

We are happy to share our agenda with you. Look forward to interesting keynotes by island stakeholders, an exciting site visit and parallel workshops with experts and island representatives.

The 7th Offshore Energy & Storage Symposium shall be held in Mediterranean island of Malta. This event brings together researchers, industry players and policy makers dedicated to driving the development and growth of offshore renewables and energy storage. This event follows a number of successful events held during the pre-covid 19 pandemic in Canada, Edinburgh, Malta, US, China and France. The 7th Offshore Energy & Storage Symposium in Malta between 12 - 14 July 2023.

To meet Europe's ambitious 2030 renewable energy targets, solar and wind must scale rapidly to become the backbone of its power infrastructure. With golden opportunities to capitalize on with the merchant power and PPA market, and energy storage deployment. Yet, constraints in supply chain, permitting, tightening margins, and aging assets are all risks for utility scale energy producers and asset owners, portfolio development and management.

Sustainable Places 2022 takes places from 6 to 9 September in Nice. The island projects  IANOS H2020 project , H2020 INSULAE Project , REACT Project EU, ROBINSON - H2020 , ISLANDER Project, GIFT H2020, H2020 MAESHA organise a workshop together with NESOI. 

Join this year’s #CE4EUIslands Forum – the 2-day event takes place on Rhodes, Greece. “From clean energy vision to clean energy action” is the motto of the Clean energy forum 2022. Be part of the knowledge hub on the EU clean energy transition on islands and meet the #CE4EUislands community.

Get insights into practical steps towards the decarbonisation of EU islands and learn more about ongoing and completed clean energy projects on islands.
