DIRECTORY ENTRY: ALINGHO - Renewable Energy Experts

Renewable energies are on the rise! Climate change and the scarcity of fossil fuels require a further expansion of renewable energy production. The demand for energy from renewable sources is growing. Policymakers are paving the way for a further expansion.

Apart from ecological motives, renewable energies and energy efficiency offer tangible economic advantages: energy-saving and ecologically-sound technologies can significantly reduce the cost base of companies.

Renewable energies include especially wind, solar (thermal collectors and photovoltaic) and biomass. Other renewable energy sources are water, geothermal power and biofuels (e.g. biodiesel, hydrogen).

Energy efficiency as an industry includes companies whose products and services help to save energy or to use energy more efficiently. These are, for example, companies from the fields of heating systems, decentral energy production or contracting.

A broader definition of the industry – environmental technologies / cleantech – also includes recycling systems and waste and water treatment industries.
