Rudolf Scharping is excellently suited to cover all aspects related to political and regulatory decisions, private and public commitment as well as research and technology policy. With the significantly increased importance of renewable energy for Germany ́s infrastructure as a whole and Northern Germany ́s industrial and economic development, we are expecting an interactive and informative event.
