The German long-term strategy foresees a share of renewables in electricity supply of 55- 60% by 2035. Also, Germany is working towards the EU 2020 Strategy to increase energy efficiency by 20% until 2020. Even though they hold 50% of the world’s proven crude oil and 30% of its natural gas reserves, most Arab countries have ambitious plans to diversify energy resources and increase energy efficiency. With their experience and state-of the art technology, German companies can offer a sustainable contribution to the Arab world’s energy projects. Strategic partnerships based on mutual benefit and understanding, facilitate economic advantages for both sides. To create new synergies and strengthen existing Arab- German cooperation in the energy sector the Ghorfa Arab-German Chamber of Commerce and Industry is organizing the 5th Arab-German Energy Forum from November 13th-14th, 2014 at the Hotel Adlon Kempinski in Berlin. Renowned experts of the industry and politics will discuss current trends and potential cooperation possibilities on: Electricity, Water and Power, Frameworks and Financing, Energy Efficiency, Education and Know-How Transfer as well as Conventional and Renewable Energies. The 5th Arab-German Energy Forum presents a great opportunity to expand networks between Arab and German business partners. As in the last years more than 300 high-ranking Arab and German decision-makers from politics, business and science are expected at the conference.
