World Summit for Small Wind 2015: Call for Papers – One week extension!
“Small and Medium Wind Systems – microgrids and minigrids based on 100% renewable energy”
The World Wind Energy Association (WWEA) and New Energy Husum are pleased to invite all small and medium wind stakeholders to participate in the 6th World Summit for Small Wind (WSSW2015), taking place in Husum/Germany on 19, 20 and 21 March 2015, in parallel with the New Energy Husum Trade Fair 2015 (19- 22 March 2015).
The New Energy Husum trade fair is the leading trade fair for small-scale wind technology. The fair features the grass roots energy transition, and will be focussed on own consumption of renewable energy, alternative mobility with electric vehicles, and energy-efficient and ecological building and renovation.
The main theme of the 6th WSSW is Small and Medium Wind Systems – microgrids and minigrids based on 100% renewable energy. The summit is aimed at jointly exploring more ways of wind power application and flexible matching means to meet market demand on islands.
Abstracts are invited on issues within the scope of the topic of the summit:
1. Microgrids and minigrids powered with wind
2. Wind power for islands
3. Distributed wind power application
4. Wind power policies and incentive measures
5. System integration, optimization and grid connection
6. Hybrid systems and energy storage
7. Market potentials
8. Financing, insurance and risk control, etc.
9. Development in extreme climate and special conditions
10. International cooperation, capacity building, education and training
In addition, abstracts are also invited on:
11. Small wind standards and certification schemes
