SwissEnergy

The Federal Office of Energy supports the Swiss energy companies' efforts to further increase the share of electricity produced from renewable energy sources and to participate in Europe's dynamic green power markets.

EURELECTRIC
Union of the Electricity Industry

Renewable energy is of primary importance in meeting the challenge of climate change and for security of supply. The Union of the Electricity Industry-EURELECTRIC supports the use of market mechanisms to increase the contribution to our energy supply from renewables. "Green power" is an ideal way to highlight the benefits to consumers, and EURELECTRIC supports progress in this direction. In particular, EURELECTRIC is delighted to participate in this 5^th European Conference on Green Power Marketing 2007. The Conference will serve to raise the profile of this important topic in electricity production and marketing.

RECS
Renewable Energy Certificate System

RECS believes in a strong, transparent and liquid market for renewable energy in Europe. In order to make the green energy market as transparent as possible RECS believes in international harmonised certificates systems. These systems facilitate the national and international markets and avoid double counting and double selling of green energy. We therefore believe that RECS is the right partner to the 5^th European Conference on Green Power Marketing 2007. The development of the (voluntary) demand of green power in Europe and the implementation of certificate systems go hand in hand with each other.
