E-Energy Model Regions
A technology competition identified six model regions to carry out research and development activities with support from the BMWi and the BMU. They follow an integral systematic approach that spans all value adding segments. It includes all energy-specific business activities both at the market level and the technical operational level. Close contact is also maintained to the other finalists of the technology competition and other initiatives. The E-Energy beacon project will be the impetus for widespread development.
