“NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR SMALL WIND: The Global Shift Towards 100% Renewables”
Husum, Germany, 17-18 March 2016
Don’t miss the opportunity to learn about the most recent developments of the Small Wind Sector Worldwide. Register now here.
The 7th World Summit for Small Wind (WSSW2016), taking place in Husum/Germany on 17 and 18 March 2016, in parallel with the New Energy Husum Trade Fair 2015 (17- 20 March 2016).
The main theme of the 7th WSSW is New opportunites for small wind – the global shift towards 100% renewables. This theme refers to the agreement of the recent UN Climate Change conference COP21 in Paris in which in fact all countries agreed that the world will convert its energy supply completely to renewable energy by middle of this century. This historic milestone will give a boost to the renewables industry all over the world and create new markets, including for small wind.
