About Project ⇒
The German Energy Solutions Initiative was launched by the German Bundestag in
2002 to make a significant contribution to climate change mitigation by
promoting German quality products in the field of renewable energy
technologies RET. Support has since been provided to small and medium-sized
German enterprises SMEs in the fields of renewable energy RE, energy
efficiency EE, smart grids and storage technologies as they seek to position
themselves on international markets. The Project Development Programme PDP
for developing countries and emerging economies is a major pillar of the
German Energy Solutions Initiative along with the German Chambers of Commerce
Abroad’s Business Trip Programme, the German Energy Agency’s Renewable Energy
Solutions Programme and the Foreign Trade Fair Programme. PDP is implemented
by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GIZ GmbH.
