This years Energy EfficiencyUsing less energy/electricity to perform the same function. Programs designed to use electricity more efficiently - doing the same with less. Conference “EE-Global 2009” will take place end of April in Paris and Dr. Marianne Osterkorn, Director of REEEPThe Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) is a non-profit, specialist change agent aiming to catalyse the market for renewable energy and energy efficiency, with a primary focus on emerging markets and developing countries. will moderate one of the executive sessions about “EnergyThe ability to perform work, mainly kinetic, potential, thermal energy, but also in forms of gravitational, sound, elastic and electromagnetic energy. EfficiencyUsing less energy/electricity to perform the same function. Programs designed to use electricity more efficiently - doing the same with less. and RenewablesRenewable energy is power generated from infinite sources, such as wind or solar power. Conventional energy is generated from finite sources, such as natural gas or fossil oil.: Competing or Complementary Technologies”. Often renewable energyRenewable energy is power generated from infinite sources, such as wind or solar power. Conventional energy is generated from finite sources, such as natural gas or fossil oil. technologies receive greater policy support than do energy-efficiency technologies therefore this session will feature a discussion of why and how policies need to support them both.

Upfront to this event, Director of Development at the Alliance to Save Energy Chuck Wilson interviewed Dr. Marianne Osterkorn to give you an overview about the main topics that will be discussed during this session.

I am sure this will be a very interesting session and I hope to see many of our reegle-blog readers there (don’t forget to meet me at our booth) … If you are not able to come to Paris – continue to read this blog – I will keep you informed
