For Austria and Specifically the Ministry of Transport, Innovation and Technology almost 40-years of collaboration in the field of research and technological development within the International Energy Agency places an important addition to national and EU activities. The technology programme of the IEA is conducted by currently 40 Implementing Agreements. The activities of these multilateral technology initiatives range from research and networking to support of market implementation. Austrian participation in Tasks and Annexes are supported by the bmvit program “IEA Research Cooperation”.
This year’s Austrian IEA networking event focuses on the electricity supply of the future. In a first morning session the potentials of renewables power generation technologies photovoltaic , wind energy and concentrated solar power and their intelligent system integration will be elaborated. The second session will be dedicated to customer aspects. Therefore international examples and results from the Demand Side Management Implementing Agreement will be presented. In the afternoon short presentations of new task and annex participations and finally break out sessions are planned.
