On 1 June 2023, Sekem Energy/OurPower Süd, in cooperation with the institute LIFE, invited for the third time to an interesting, high-level discussion round in the scenic orchard of the organic farm Birnstingl-Gottinger.
Besides details on the implementation of energy communities, broader topics such as Citizen Led Rennovation or the importance of the European Green Deal for Austria until 2030 were addressed. The event has developed into an important forum between energy experts, stakeholders and citizens.
Speakers at the event were LIFE energy expert Andreas Türk, Sonja Wogrin (Head of the Institute for Electricity Management and Energy Innovation, University of Technology Graz), Lukas Tröls (Sales Manager, OurPower, Energiebezirk Freistadt) and Michael Puttinger (Project Manager, OurPower South).
After statements by the experts, interested citizens had the opportunity to exchange ideas.
