How to ensure the prosperity of the value-added economy in Estonia?

The Estonian national goal by 2030 is to cover at least 100 per cent of gross final consumption of electricity from renewable resources. This creates a unique possiblity to attract new value-adding investments to Estonia. On the one hand, direct investments in the energy sector to build the sufficient renewable energy capacity. On the other hand and simultaneously it is important to create an environment that would support the growth of value-adding economy for consuming the renewable electricity. Instead of exporting the renewable electricity it is more profitable to consume the renewable electricity for value-adding economical activities.

WEC Estonia is holding a discussion event on how to create an environment that simultaneously supports achieving the national renewable electricity goal as well as the growth of value-adding economy.
