The Forum's topic was Mainstreaming Renewables - Successful in the new Energy World and intended to make a bold statement while facilitating discussions about the new understanding of energy markets. More than 150 participants on May 24/25, 2012 used the Forum as a platform for discussions, to generate innovative solutions and to exchange state-of-the-art knowledge.
