The EU wants a highly electrified energy system as the basis for climate neutrality by 2050. And they want wind to be half of Europe’s electricity. That means ruthlessly prioritising the future-proof technologies, infrastructure and business models that will accelerate renewables-based electrification.

A new report from ETIPWind and WindEurope, “Getting fit for 55 and set for 2050: Electrifying Europe with wind energy”, sets out how to meet the challenge. We will launch it at this online event on 8 June at 15:00 CEST.

We’ll be with:

• João Galamba, Portuguese State Secretary for Energy

• Alexandra Sdoukou, Greek Secretary General for Energy

• Rosalinde van der Vlies, Director for Energy Research, EU Commission

• Bo Svoldgaard, SVP Innovation, Vestas

• Rasmus Errboe, SVP Europe, Ørsted

• Elisabeth Brinton, EVP Renewables & Energy Solutions, Shell, and

• Henrik Stiesdal, wind energy technology pioneer

We’ll discuss what technologies, policies and incentives can help drive wind-based electrification. And where we still need Research & Innovation to help unlock the transformation of the energy system. Do join us!
