Green Power Marketing GmbH
DR DEVRIM YETERGIL
Managing Director
After gaining a degree in economics, Devrim Yetergil worked as a project manager in market research, responsible for studies in the fields of industry, traffic and travel, and the media. She then became an independent consultant specialising in quantitative and qualitative research and economic analysis. Environmental-economic issues played a key role in her work from an early stage.
Devrim holds a doctorate from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETHZ). Her PhD dissertation involved estimating the cancer risk posed by carcinogenic air pollutants and the resulting social costs. Subsequently she worked for the ETHZ's Department of Environmental Sciences, where she was responsible for research coordination, public relations and external affairs. One of her strengths is organising events. In 2001, for example, she organised a highly popular event at the ETHZ under the banner "The Swiss electricity market in the wake of liberalisation", which attracted some 200 participants.
As Managing Director of Green Power Marketing GmbH, Devrim Yetergil is responsible for the strategic development of the European Conference on Green Power Marketing. Energy-efficiency and low-emission, environmentally-friendly energy are prerequisites for sustainable development. Not only this, but trading green power has considerable economic potential, which the electricity industry must now exploit.
