The transnational network COACH BioEnergy will meet to discuss various options of using bioenergy in Central Europe in a sustainable way and present the findings of the three-year-project. At the Central Conference entitled "Sustainable Bioenergy Use in Central Europe", several international experts from the European Commission, German federal ministries, and leading research and development institutions will address various aspects of the theme and thus create a unique forum for transnational exchange and cooperation.

We are pleased to announce the Central Conference of the COACH BioEnergy network that will take place on December 1, 2011 at the Fraunhofer Forum Berlin, Germany.

Key issues discussed at the Central Conference are

• What are the conditions and opportunities for future sustainable RES policy in Germany and Central European Countries?
• How does sustainability assessment of innovative bioenergy technologies work as a support for the consultancy praxis?
• How do regional and local renewable energy strategies work? – case studies for regional energy concepts in Hungary, Poland, Austria and Germany
• How could knowledge transfer in transnational networks look like?

We would like to invite you to the COACH Bioenergy Central Conference and are looking forward to fruitful discussions with presenters and conference participants.The participation in the conference is free of charge but registration is required. The language of the Central Conference is English.
