Because of its huge success IRES will take place in Berlin again for the fifth time in November this year. In 2006 EUROSOLAR and the World Council for Renewable Energy (WCRE) started the IRES conference series, intended to contribute to the developments in energy storage and to popularize the resulting applications and solutions. The view in the professional energy storage world is that IRES has meanwhile developed into the central platform for sharing knowledge and exchanging ideas on one of the key issues of future energy supply. We would be delighted to welcome you at IRES 2010!
The new Call for Papers is already open for your submissions:

The International Renewable Energy Agency
one year on
IRENA turned out to be a success many had not believed in. At EUROSOLAR we were convinced from the very beginning that it was right to take this road. Our tenacity was rewarded: We came a long way but finally achieved our target.

Massive grid planned in the North Sea is moving wind power deployment in wrong direction
EUROSOLAR president Hermann Scheer on proposed €30bn electricity grid to run under the North Sea:
The plan to build a network of high voltage direct current cables undersea stretching across the North Sea set to supply electricity from offshore wind parks and reservoirs in Norway may look fascinating at first sight. But at second glance it is misleading when taking everything into account. The apparent intent is to channel further wind power deployment primarily into offshore wind and thus into the power companies‘ hands. This would stand in the way of the desirable development into decentralised electricity generation in the hands of many – utilities and private operators. Generating electricity from decentralised sources is more appealing in terms of the overall economy and less expensive in terms of economics, which is also true for wind power.

EUROSOLAR president Dr Hermann Scheer comments on the global summit on climate change in Copenhagen
The world’s climate is not a matter of one single government and not of the world organisation, but must be of national concern to every country!
What happened in Copenhagen was not truly surprising but pre-programmed. No use now singling out and blaming, in retrospect, governments – the United States or China – for the unsuccessful outcome. The underlying cause of the collective failure is the wrong premise in the climate negotiations of this 15th global summit during the past 15 years by now.
