• New markets exists in areas, where energy consumption is rapidly increasing and energy infrusturcture is still lacking – high potential in developing countries (1,2
• Solar, wind, batteries, small scale hydro & bio with smart grid integration givetechnology advantage
• We have technology and business know-how in several companies for this market• We need to create Finnish clusters and find export markets together• Public financed organisations can help
• Research support by universities and VTT – also new contacts for companies• Opening doors to export markets by FinPro, Team Finland,…• Investment money for profitable Finnish export projects from Finfund
• Private companies must finally take the lead to expand the businesses
FINNISH ENERGY KNOW-HOW TO BUSINESS - HOW
1) Renewable Energy World - Microgrids Seen as Answer for 620 Million Africans Without Power, November 16, 20152) IEA Indian Energy Outkook - Need for improved welfare and quality of life for India’s 1.3 billion people is huge – first and foremost for the estimated 240 million that remain today without access to electricity.
NEW ENERGY TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH- activities all over the globe!
CASE Nanyang Technological University Singapore
• integration of solar, wind, tidal-current, diesel, storage and power-to-gas technologies, and ensure these energy sources operate well together.
• See http://phys.org/news/2014-10-ntu-region-renewable-energy-micro-grid.html#jCp
• There are high number of SG demos and research teams globally
• We need to act know to get our share!
