Permanent Office – Indo-German Energy Forum (Phase 2 – Climate Change Mitigation and Decentralised Power Generation – Indo-German Energy Forum)

Since the beginning of 2016, the project provided climate and energy policy consulting services to the Indian and German partners, especially regarding the "Indo-German Climate and Renewables Alliance", which was newly launched by Chancellor Merkel and Prime Minister Modi. Until 2015, the project also supported the 'Indo-German Energy Forum' (IGEF) with its branch offices in New Delhi and Berlin. From there, various services were offered, such as the organization of events, the support of cooperation projects and technology transfer as well as the exchange of experiences on sustainable energy policy.
