During the 2nd VDI conference on biogas Dr. Wolfgang Urban from Ecologic Institute presented technical options for a grid-compatible biogas feed such as conditioning of liquefied natural gas, the formation of heating value districts, computational heating value tracking and additional gas supply. He classified the different options and discussed the economic aspects. The presentation slides are available for download.

Energy experts from Israel and the Palestinian Territories took part in a dialogue programme organised by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS), engaging with counterparts in the United States to explore whether renewable energy could serve as a foundation for international cooperation. Michael Mehling, President of Ecologic Institute US in Washington, DC, shared insights into the experiences of German cities and municipalities in pursuing greater energy independence.
