By: Joe Richards Industry experts will deliver an unequalled programme of strategic, technical, keynote and plenary sessions across seven different tracks. Day one will focus on ‘Strategies for the European power industry’ featuring seminars on the new build strategies being adopted across Europe. Throughout the course of the conference, delegates will also have the chance to attend sessions addressing ‘Gas fired power technology’, ‘Reducing the carbon footprint of fossil power generation’ and the ‘Pathways to integration’ This year’s joint plenary panel discussion will once again be moderated by BBC interviewer, Stephen Sackur and will focus on German Power Policy – Solution or Illusion? With its provocative title, the debate will offer industry practitioners the chance to voice their opinions about the practical implications of Germany’s direction in power generation technology choices and whether these policies could provide a beacon for other European countries. Invited panellists include: Erland Christensen, VGB PowerTech; Johannes Lambertz, RWE Power; Giuseppe Zampini, Ansaldo Energia; Prof. Arthouros Zervos, European Renewable Energy Council; and Hans-Joachim Reck, VKU. “The integration challenge in Europe is very much underway with a convergence between existing conventional power and the fast-growing renewable generation sector,” said Nigel Blackaby, conference director, POWER-GEN Europe. “This has sparked a compelling cross-pollination of ideas and best practice on how best to service the evolving energy sector and we are very much looking forward to seeing these discussions develop at POWER-GEN Europe this year.” POWER-GEN Europe provides an event where power industry professionals can appreciate the big picture and truly engage with the direction the industry is heading in.
