In our hybrid seminar, attended by more than 170 participants from different industries, industry experts outlined market opportunities and challenges for DACH companies<\/strong> and introduced practical approaches to transition towards greener energy sources. Renewable energy production and consumption, in particular solar PV and wind energy markets, are showing constant growth over the last decade, which is further accelerated by China\u2019s 30.60<\/strong> pledge.<\/p>\n<\/div>Speaker Kevin Tu concluded:<\/p>\n<\/div>
The establishment of a new type of power system with Chinese characteristics will bring both opportunities and risks to market players. Identifying the appropriate (niche) market is important for sustainable operations of international companies in the Chinese market.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Attendees gained valuable insights and best practice approaches. CRRC Voith, a Sino-German joint-venture which develops and produces wind turbine gearboxes, is a great example for innovative and digitized production processes. Markus Schlosser<\/strong> demonstrated how CRRC Voith<\/strong> optimized supply chains and reduced costs by implementing new tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgies.<\/p>\nHu Caihong<\/strong> introduced Volkswagen Group\u2019s<\/strong> \u201cgoTOzero\u201d mission and the company\u2019s approaches on decarbonization of production. Her presentation included suggestions on how to reduce carbon emissions for suppliers and SME manufacturers in China, and, in particular, explained what should be the basis of make-or-buy decisions when switching to renewables.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Special thanks go to the events’ expert speakers,<\/h4><\/div>- <\/i><\/span>
