Support for consortium formation for climate-friendly energy projects

November 8, 2023

Particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), expanding into new markets is associated with high transaction costs and risks. Individual companies typically do not cover the entire value chain to offer end customers a turnkey product along the value chain or cross-technology energy solutions. The Export Initiative Energy has now addressed this: Two moderator teams have been commissioned to identify suitable climate-friendly energy projects abroad and to support German companies in forming consortia.

From now on, you can send your proposals and ideas for specific projects worldwide in the field of climate-friendly energy solutions and green hydrogen to the Export Initiative Energy.
