From the 15th to the 19th of June, Europe celebrated Energy Week, where companies, NGOs and other governmental agencies brought issues surrounding energy innovation and preservation to the forefront. IMIEU celebrated Energy Week by hosting two separate events; a High-Level conference, held at the European Commission and our own independent event hosted by Frank Neumann, the director of IMIEU.
Our first event on June 16th was an opportunity to explore the latest developments in the salinity gradient power sector in Asia and Europe. The event featured a number of experienced international speakers from South Korea, Israel, Germany and the Netherlands, who provided detailed insights to the latest developments within their countries.
The High-Level Policy conference was held on June 17th, and demonstrated the value of methods of salinity gradient energy for desalination, but also for mining and industrial waste streams. There was an overview of the technologies RED and PRO, and we saw the great advance of some projects in the last years, as well as having a glance of the future.
We would like to thank our speakers and attendees for joining us at our Energy Week conferences. IMIEU would also like to extend our thanks to the European Commission for hosting our High-Level policy conference.
