| 5th International Renewable Energy Storage Conference IRES 2010 |
Because of the huge success of the IRES conference series, EUROSOLAR and the World Council for Renewable Energy (WCRE) are continuing the series in 2010 and cordially invite you to the 5th International Renewable Energy Storage Conference (IRES 2010), that will take place in Berlin, November 22-24, 2010.
The new Call for Papers is already open for your submissions:
The global potentials of Renewable Energy enable us to achieve an all-encompassing substitution for fossil fuels and atomic energy in the fields of heat, electricity and mobility.
This substitution, which entails the full exploitation of Renewable Energies, requires on the one hand, power grids and grid management tailored to the needs of Renewable Energy generation in relation to the demand for energy and taking into account the mix of complementary, available Renewable Energies, and on the other hand, the storage of heat and electricity for different periods of time, applications areas and performances.
Ground breaking opportunities will thereby emerge for the dynamic exploitation of Renewable Energies in manifold energy-autonomous forms, in residential construction and by and for enterprises, residential developments, cities, regions and countries. Herein also lies the chance of achieving numerous technological innovations along with new prospects for the industries.
