Four events are set to make Hamburg the global hub for #EnergyTransition and #Sustainability in autumn 2024: In October, the Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) will have its premiere, and Hydrogen Technology Europe will be held in Hamburg for the first time. Industry events such as WindEnergy Hamburg and SMM, the maritime trade fair, will open their doors in September, enabling the industry to present concrete solutions for the energy transition. The four events in Hamburg at a glance: ⚓ SMM Hamburg (3–6 September 2024): The maritime economy is in the midst of the green transition, and advanced technologies are the enablers of this sweeping transformation. At SMM, international exhibitors will showcase the latest products and ideas paving the way into the future of shipping. Under the motto “SMM – driving the maritime transition”, the 31st SMM will focus in particular on the maritime energy transition and digital transformation. 🌬 WindEnergy Hamburg (24–27 September 2024): The goal is set! By 2030, the EU aims to generate 425 gigawatts of electricity from wind energy. The energy transition can only succeed if new wind farms are quickly connected to the grid and the electricity can be distributed as needed. WindEnergy Hamburg brings together the international wind energy industry – from plant and component manufacturers to project developers and operators through to scientists and politicians. 💧 Hydrogen Technology Expo Europe (23–24 October 2024): Produced from renewable energies, hydrogen is the central element of a climate-neutral industry. The hydrogen economy is currently experiencing a boom, opening up enormous opportunities. Hydrogen Technology Expo Europe is the world's largest supplier fair for the corresponding technologies. 🌐 Hamburg Sustainability Conference (7–8 October 2024): The new Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) will offer a trailblazing format that is intended to lead to concrete processes and initiatives. At HSC, leaders from politics, business, science and civil society are planning to implement a joint process to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Taking place at Hamburg Town Hall, the focus is on jointly developing political frameworks for action and creating breakthroughs to achieve the SDGs by 2030. While the focus tends to be on questions and problems in the context of achieving sustainability and climate targets, Hamburg as host city offers its 2024 international expert audience a platform for answers and feasible solutions. Furthermore, the city will be much more than just the stage for these high-impact industry events; it also serves as a showroom for trailblazing approaches to how cities can respond to global challenges. We are looking forward to these impactful occasions for tackling some of the biggest challenges of our time. 💯 (Photo: Hamburg Marketing / Mhoch4) #SDG #climatechange #renwables #HamburgInvest

The Future for our Motorways is Clean and Renewable enabling our soonest transition to clean air, energy security, and a truly sustainable future 🌞 A futuristic highway lined with solar panels integrated into noise barriers and adjacent land. Imagine Ireland’s motorways not just as routes for travel but as hubs of renewable energy. Integrating solar panels along highways can power EVs, reduce carbon emissions, and utilize already-sealed spaces efficiently. Germany's Autobahn 81 is leading the charge with a 33 kW solar prototype, paving the way for sustainable roads worldwide. Ireland must follow fast to achieve netzero soonest... 💡 Share your thoughts or collaborate with us partnerships and collaboration are key for us to achieve our mutual sustainable future soonest. Imagine driving on Irish motorways, powered by renewable energy sourced directly from the road infrastructure. It’s not just a dream—it’s a solution that countries like Austria and Switzerland are already exploring. 🚗 Together, we can make this a reality in Ireland. Let’s innovate for a greener future. Lets invest €5B and avoid €8B in EU fines coming our way for failing to meet decarbonisation targets. www.solarmotorways.com

European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) has been a powerful reminder of the urgent need to transition towards more sustainable energy sources. In 2023, our Plexus facility in Oradea, Romania took steps towards more sustainable energy use by installing a new HVAC system. Since installation, we have been able to reduce our HVAC energy use by 35% and estimate a yearly saving of 600,000 kWh - enough to heat 120 households! As the world’s clean energy needs evolve, Plexus remains a partner of choice in advancing the technologies for a more sustainable world. Let's carry the momentum of this week forward and continue to promote a more sustainable future for energy use. #EUSEW #CleanEnergy
