Know-how transfer event for green energy and fuelling solutions
Pro Danube successfully organised online the second edition of the W2GAS (Waste to Compost and Green Energy) know-how transfer event on 26 November 2020.
After an informative first event in September, with insights into sustainable developments in the fuel sector as well as into Austrian biogas technology solutions, the second event focused on general findings and results of the project. First-hand information was provided by the Austrian Economic Chamber (WKO) representative in Romania, Mr Gerd Bommer, and by several other Austrian stakeholders present in the Romanian business environment. Experts and sector representatives discussed topics such as available implementation options to use gas as fuel in the transport sector and funding opportunities. Key elements of the permit procedures were also high on the agenda.
