Even though automotive companies, start-ups and many others often steal the spotlight, municipal utilities play an important role in the energy transition. Let's take the electric car charging infrastructure: In large cities, local energy suppliers often have a monopoly on charging stations. This is particularly true for emobility providers (EMP) and charge point operators (CPO), as they are indispensable for the mobility transition to work while determining the charging costs. Who is going to win this race for the expansion and operation of charging infrastructure in the short and medium term - municipal utilities or private companies? How can EMPs and CPOs work together effectively and maybe even complement each other? Moderator: Markus Emmert, Board member, German Federal Association for eMobility, Germany

Off-grid solar systems are often the least expensive option for rural electrification. Solar home systems can power individual households, while mini-grids can supply entire villages. Each comes with its own advantages, disadvantages, and challenges. The aim of this session is to explore challenges as well as success stories. It takes well-functioning components such as battery systems, charge management and inverters to make projects successful. Proper system sizing, maintenance and repair management, as well as a robust financial concept are also necessary. If one of these elements is missing, the electrification will not be sustainable. This session will focus on the aspects mentioned above. The speakers will present successful and unsuccessful approaches and discuss what can be learned from them.
