Decentralised energy supply

Energy trading

The marketing of renewable electricity should be market-based, at the latest when coal-fired power generation is phased out. Aecoute° advises on access to exchanges and over-the-counter markets, contract design and national and European emissions trading.

Energy Efficiency / Sustainability
