Fully charged: Powering the transition to renewable energy
4 November, at 11:10am, on the Planet:Tech stage
The CEO of EDP group joined CGTN Europe presenter, Robyn Dwyer, for the panel "Fully charged: Powering the transition to renewable energy". For 20 minutes, Miguel Stilwell d'Andrade talked about EDP's commitment to be 100% green by 2030, leading the energy transition and ensuring the company's contribution to meeting the Paris Agreement. In this session, inevitably, the current energy crisis and the importance of renewable energies to overcome it were also addressed.
Among the different dynamics that our stand offered, attendees found several innovation promotional videos with our strategic and green goals for 2030. Each video had a QR code leading participants to answer a few questions which if correctly answered, were rewarded.
Additionally, for its brand activation, participants were invited to do pledged & offset their carbon footprint by telling us where they came from, and how they travelled to the event, and after the event we calculated their carbon footprint.
Themed ‘survey walls’ allowed us to engage with attendees, with 3 questions under a theme that participants answered in a tactile way.
Once again we invited selected startups from its open innovation ecosystem to showcase their innovative solutions at the Web Summit. These are companies that collaborated with us through the Free Electrons and Energy Starter programs or that have been invested by EDP Ventures.
