EPEE Count on Cooling launch now a webinar

The EPEE event on March 24, which was the official launch of its Count on Cooling campaign, is the latest event to fall victim to the coronavirus and EPEE has now decided to hold the event as free-to-access webinars. 

“Unfortunately, in the light of the current COVID-19 situation, we have decided to transform these events into webinars, still on 24 March,” the organiser said.

In the first webinar, Andrea Voigt, EPEE director general, will present the European Green Deal (EDG) and the policy initiatives with relevance to the cooling sector. EPEE argues that involving the cooling sector is crucial for the EGD to be a success. She will explain what the EGD means for the air conditioning and refrigeration sector and the role of sustainable cooling in a carbon neutral Europe.

This webinar will be held from 13.15-14.00 (CET). Register for the webinar here.

This will be followed at 14.30 (CET) by a 90-minute webinar on Sustainable Cooling as an Enabler for Decarbonisation. This will take a look at the political framework for sustainable cooling, with a focus on the European Green Deal and will also discuss the three key pillars to sustainable cooling: energy efficiency, renewables and infrastructure. Speakers will include Jutta Paulus MEP; Mr Roland Roesch from the International Renewables Energy Agency as well as Olivier Biancarelli from Engie.
