Hilton Vienna Plaza Hotel
Vienna/Athens (APA-ots) - The Vienna Energy Transition Forum, which is
convened by the Institute of Energy for SE Europe (IENE) in
partnership with the Vienna based Energy Centre Europe (ECE) is
bringing together some of the most progressive energy thinkers from
across Europe in order to discuss the critical energy and
environmental issues and how these can be tackled as the region
enters a decarbonization phase in line with EU goals and
international commitments. The Forum, which is organized by IENE
(www.iene.eu), will be held at the Hilton Vienna Plaza Hotel
(Schottering 11,A-1010 Vienna), on Thursday and Friday, June 6/7,
2019.
The broad purpose of the "Vienna Energy Transition Forum is to
bring together energy leaders from all different countries of South
East and Central Europe and beyond, but also senior representatives
from major international organizations and from regional and
international energy companies operating in the wider CEE and SEE
region. An impressive group of speakers representing a wide range of
disciplines and business interests covering the broad energy sector,
will gather in Vienna for two days of high level meetings to discuss
the challenges now facing our region arising from Energy Transition.
Already 35 authorities of the energy sector representing some of the
leading European energy companies and international organisations
(EU, Energy Community, OPEC, World Bank, IAEA, IIASA, OSCE, NNWI)
have confirmed their participation.
Issues such as the need to decarbonise power generation and yet
maintain reliable base load, the role of gas as a fuel of choice and
the need for further renewables penetration under economically
competitive terms will be hotly debated in the Vienna Energy
Transition Forum. EU 's decarbonisation agenda and Energy Transition
roadmap will come under scrutiny as a bundle of factors ranging from
electricity market integration and grid performance to the slow pace
of implementing vital gas interconnections and the role of nuclear
power as a realistic alternative capable of delivering emission free
power generation, will also be addressed. Another important topic
which is often sidelined in Energy Transition fora but which will be
fully discussed in the Vienna meeting, is the constructive role that
the Oil & Gas industry can play during Energy Transition. A new
energy agenda for CE and SEE is in the offing and this will form a
focal point of discussions at the Forum.
